Description:
|
Crawling around under your vehicle to safely position your conventional jack can now be a thing of the past. With an ARB X-Jack, simply place the unit on the ground beneath the side of the vehicle to be raised and connect the hose to your tailpipe. When the engine is started, the jack inflates. With a lifting capacity of 8800 pounds, an exhaust jack is the fastest way to lift your vehicle up to 30 inches.
Bushranger product engineers recognized that conventional jacks were not suitable to all types of terrain. In unstable areas of mud, sand and snow, the exhaust jack offers a wider footprint to avoid sinking and uses specially designed, triangular shaped feet to keep the unit firmly grounded. For ease and greater stability, this unit is designed to be safely placed under the side of the body rather than positioned under an axle like a traditional jack.
A solid hard plate integrated in to the top of the X-Jack along with additional side curtains offer maximum protection against punctures. The X-Jack also offers a secondary inflation point for a 12 volt compressor and for maximum speed, the compressor and the exhaust hose can be connected at the same time!
Sold complete in a heavy duty storage bag with a puncture repair kit, a ground mat, the exhaust connection kit and a pair of gloves, the ARB X-jack kit is small enough to be easily stowed in your vehicle.
When in sand, snow or mud an ARB X-Jack is the fastest way to get your vehicle lifted.
Complete kit comes with inflatable jack with heavy duty storage bag, puncture repair kit, ground mat, exhaust connection kit and pair of gloves.
Bushranger is a division of Kingsley Enterprises a leading Australian manufacturer of automotive and four wheel drive accessories for more than a quarter century.

I got this only because I saw it in action. I really didn't think it would work all that well but I was surprised to see it lift a truck buried to the frame in sand. I do a lot of fishing at the beach along North and South Carolina. I been stuck a few time. I got one of these xjacks and the couple of times I got stuck in the sand, it lifted the truck up where a jack couldn't have possibly been used. It has it's limits and I wouldn't use it to work on a vehicle but it is flexible enough to use in certain situations. Jay

Pros:
|
good quality lift bag, easy to setup and nice carrying bag.
|
Cons:
|
takes too much resistance against exhaust system, needs air compressor.

After getting stuck on my frame I attempted to setup the jack while a friend had to hold the exhaust cone on my exhaust tip (round). Not only did it have to be held on but my friend could not hold it on against the pressure long enough for my truck to jack up. Without the proper air compressor this jack is useless to me. Even if I use an air compressor I also need to hook up the exhaust hose which could be designed for either or instead of having to hookup both. This not a one man operation when using the exhaust for lift power. Will retest after having to purchase an air compressor and no not from you.
