pretty ------ clever

Re: Homemade Electric Jack on the cheap
 

I had a jack that style with a 17mm bolt head as the end (came in a Chrysler Concorde), so that you could use the tire wrench to just turn it, i always just put a 17 on my impact gun and spun it. Nice way to adapt that one! :)

exactly! Thats what i was about to say. I think its the chryslers that alot of them already have a head on them that u can just put a wrench on. I have 2 that i took to track last time to change into the slicks, they had a 21mm head on them. I just take my snap-on 1/2 inch electric impact and a 21mm and im up in the air in no time!

I also use the same setup for at work when i get someone with a super low car or ricer body kit to get it just high enough so i can fit the arms of are lifts under the car.

design something to do that on the side of the road. run it off the vehicles 12v system

Re: Homemade Electric Jack on the cheap
 

Why not just take a large nut and bore it out big enough to slip onto the square part of the jack and then weld it? Then use a socket on the nut.
