Rolson Jacks, Any good?
« on: 17 August 2009, 17:36:38 »
Just got a 3.5 tonne Rolson jack and am not familiar with the name.

Anyone come across them before? I'd like to know whats supporting the 2 tonne omega when i'm underneath it. ;)

It would be interesting to see if the jack can actually lift (and support) the claimed weight.
Everything I have purchased that has the Rolson brand name has fallen apart in under 3 months from purchase.

Certainly lifts the miggy, no real plans to lift anything heavier.
