Hi All,

Jack 1 anyday.
hrag whats wrong with the bottle jack?

The trolley jack allows you to roll the jack under the vehicle conveniently - the slight adjustment of position is also made easy. These are next to impossible with the bottle jack.

+1, you can actual inspect before buying and its about same price in J.C Road.

What is the use case ?

I bought a bottle jack in the 118NE (pre 1994) days. Worked very nicely. Then one day, I had a flat and the oil had leaked out. So ended up borrowing the scissor jack from a friends M800. Moral look at simple (fail safe) technology for things like a jack.

Which is why I suggested hitting JC road, for Bangalore guys. There you get trolley jacks used commercially for about the same price, or slightly more than what was listed for the ebay item.
