@ Martin,

Bearing in mind that 95% of these products are from the same origin i.e. China, that is indeed a considerable price difference.
The cheapest I could find in the UK is GBP 69,75 on ebay UK item #290493235516 . Sorry that a direct link is not working.

@ Fred,

To keep our hobby affordable you sometimes have to be smart :wink:
Cheers,
Ad

I do'nt have one yet but will get one. I was thinking of placing a small ramp either side of the jack just high enough to keep the underside of the hull clear of the jack. Then raise up on jack.

Hi,
I know this won't help much to whoever looking for the motorcycle lift from other part of the world. These two are available in OZ for Aussie tankers (thought made in China):

Both could be slipped into under the chassis, before lifting it up.

Hi Guys
I use this also , I can also spin a tank round in seconds :P also my work bench is on wheels, making it very easy to move around.
