Little Helpers

[Roadboss]

Just picked up a set of helpers with my tax refund. Now that Go Jack's patents have expired there are some competitors out there. Getting too old to get on my knees every time I want to shove the car around in the garage. Lets hope they last.

If you can jack up each wheel and stick these under, you can save.....

Yea Bud, I have a full set of those, plus another set that I welded jackstands on as well. I am just getting to lazy and old to get down on my knees to place the jack. Takes too long to get up again. LOL

Well I got to use the new Go-Jacks as I launched "Whiner". They are so neat to use as you just pump them up under the car wheels and go. The other neat thing is that they have larger diameter wheels than the wheel dollys. I have a expansion joint on my floor that always raised a problem when I pushed the cars over it, these newer units made it a breeze. I have been wanting a set of these for years, but the price was too high, but now with the expiration of their patent the importers have brought the price in line.
