My article is not complete yet, but here are a few pics.

It all zips up into a nice circular bag.



Flat before it received some carbon monoxide poisoning.



Rise Vadar...



Finished pumping it up with the Powertank.

Very stable.
I could have pulled off the front right tire if I had wanted to change it.

Those are awesome, never seen one before. I've had a few times where it would've come in handy

Those are some nice photos! Very inspiring - I don't have a hi-lift either and I've been in spots where it would've been dangerous/impractical to use one.

Can't say I have a use for this baby, but when I move from NY...it's definitely on my list of cool things to get.

How do I hook it connect it to my set up?



I saw it sitting at Central4WD, and I kinda laughed at first. But after looking a bit more deeply into it, it seems great. I have a P/U so the bag of exhaust wouldn't be an issue at all.

Question What's Max Pressure?

Have you guys that bought these ever checked the pressure? What kind of pressure does the bag have with the truck up in the air? PSI reading?

+
=


the formula bag width (21") x bag height (36") x PSI (3-4 lbs)= lifting pounds resulted in about 3k lbs, I plan on taping video of this experiment

Wish I'd have had one of these things when I got stuck in mud! How did you "borrow" one? I may have to get myself stuck in mud and try it out! With someone else of course...
