Match the jack to the job. Capacity first: 1.5–2 tonne for most cars, 3 tonne for vans and 4x4s, 5 tonne for heavier plant or twin lifts. Low-profile jacks get under dropped cars and sports suspensions; standard jacks clear rough ground better. Rocket lift (quick-pump) saves time on repeated jobs — first few pumps move the saddle fast, then it switches to standard lift. Long-reach models are for vans, trucks, and anything where the jacking point sits further in. Check min and max saddle height against your lift points.

Aluminium/steel hybrids cut weight without losing capacity — useful if you're moving the jack between bays or loading it in a van. Solid steel jacks take more abuse on site. Adaptors fit specific jobs: cross-beam types spread the load under sills or diff housings; transmission cradles hold gearboxes and axles steady while you unbolt them. Swivel saddles help on uneven hardstanding. Twin-piston models lift faster but add bulk.

Wheels matter. Nylon rollers work on smooth floors; rubber or polyurethane grip better on grit or oil. If the jack won't roll under load, you'll fight it every lift. Keep the release valve clean and bleed air from the ram if the lift goes spongy. Most failures come from side-loading — if the vehicle rocks or the saddle isn't square, lower it and reset.

Frequently asked questions

What capacity trolley jack do I need for a car versus a van?
For most cars, a 1.5 to 2 tonne trolley jack is sufficient. Vans and 4x4s typically require a 3 tonne jack, while heavier plant or twin lifts need 5 tonne capacity.
What is the difference between a low-profile trolley jack and a standard trolley jack?
Low-profile trolley jacks have a lower minimum saddle height, allowing them to fit under dropped cars and sports suspensions. Standard jacks have higher ground clearance, making them better suited for rough ground and higher lift points.
What does rocket lift mean on a trolley jack?
Rocket lift is a quick-pump feature where the first few pumps move the saddle up quickly, then the jack switches to standard lifting mode. This saves time on repeated jobs.
Why would I choose an aluminium and steel trolley jack over solid steel?
Aluminium and steel hybrid trolley jacks reduce weight without losing lifting capacity, making them easier to move between bays or load into a van. Solid steel jacks are heavier but take more abuse on site.
What is a cross beam adaptor used for with a trolley jack?
Cross beam adaptors spread the lifting load under sills or differential housings. They are available in 2 tonne and 3 tonne capacities to match different vehicle weights.
What should I check before buying a trolley jack for my workshop?
Check the saddle clearance and maximum lift height against your vehicle's jacking points. Also consider whether you need low-profile access, long reach for vans or trucks, and the floor surface your jack will roll on.
