Overview
A technician pulling a heavy truck transmission gets a low hydraulic jack that slides under tight clearance. It has ball bearing swivel casters, a pump handle that rotates all the way around, and tilt adjustment for lining up the case.
The low height suits clutch work under trucks with little clearance, and the built-in overload feature stops the jack from lifting past its rating. The unit is large and heavy-duty in size, so it takes real floor space in a small shop.
Who it's for
Heavy truck technicians doing clutch and transmission removal will use the low profile, tilt range and adapter plate directly. Owners of light vehicles gain little from it and should consider a smaller jack.
Pros and cons
- Low profile fits tight truck clearance
- Overload protection built in
- Handle rotates for any working position
- Adapter plate included for Eaton Fuller
- Large overall footprint
- Item weight not listed
- Alloy steel build adds bulk
Performance notes
A hydraulic cylinder raises the saddle while the overload feature stops lifting beyond the rated capacity and a safety bypass protects the cylinder. Swivel casters let you roll the load into place, and the tilt range lets you angle the transmission to line up the input shaft.
