Looking good
Evening Dave. That was a really informative video 👍🏻
Nice looking jack Dave, best if you have compressed air but for most home garage workshops like mine I guess an electric version would get more take-up. Until then it’s the good old trolley jack!
Nice jack, Dave - nice link to Vevor too - very handy. On a similar-ish-ish note I bought a Yeswelder stick machine this week, with tbh, low expectations. I use rods to weld heavier stuff on customers chassis, etc etc - my old welders a big heavy sow & I'm tired lugging it around. The Yeswelder is literally tiny - size of a lunchbox - and weights nothing, maybe 1kg tops - looks like a kids toy. But, them looks are very decieving, because it is a little b*****d to weld - absolutely amazing little bit of kit.
I'm welding since I was a nipper & I'm well past 50 now - never had a better stick welder & I've had machines that were just shy of 20k (diesel tow) - that little "Toy" leaves them all for dead on smoothness & sheer punch. Amazing little bit of kit if anyone is looking for a stick welder - plus it runs (mind blown) off bloomin 13amp domestic power. Where the hell was that all my life as I lugged big heavy gits of machines up & down flights of stairs doing industrial jobs??? :-) Any mobile welder that doesn't have one is missing a massive trick right there - you could chuck this in the glovebox of a car and go do a welding job off a boggo extension lead - the little git would weld 80% of what was needed.
Good to know. I never could get the hang of stick welding.
I've seen that same equipment being tested by a French youtuber with the same satisfaction.
I would love one of those air jacks. Thanks Dave
I have one, don't think it was from Vevor but it lifts my Iveco 7.2 tonne
Make sure you use axle stands with that, Its basically to get the vehicle in the air, handy bit of kit.
Oh yes, definitely
Good piece of kit
Nice piece of kit
I bought a vevor weld on dent puller last year, nice bit of kit.
That hose could do with a grommet where it passes through the handle.
Warning Dave, it appears your channel has been hacked by some bloke that looks and sounds like you, but is playing with stuff that's neither rusty nor oily, does no welding, and has assembled a (very useful looking) tool from a kit, whereas you would obviously have knocked up something from used tyre tubes and probably migged them together to achieve perfect function. Nonetheless I think I want a Vevor Air Jack now so he has done his job well...
🤣🤣🤣🤣 it's an AI bot
Nice tool. I would recommend the use of some 303 Protectant spray on that rubber, though. I use it on my tyres and anywhere else that is susceptible to UV damage and it really does extend the lifespan. That thing does look pretty tough but sat out in hot sun, I would be worried about its integrity over time, given its purpose.
No, a person should never solely rely on a jack to support a vehicle and jack stands should always be used before getting underneath, but I just know some people will trust it on its own so keeping it in as good a condition as possible, for as long as possible, would be my recommendation.
I'm not talking about you, Dave; I know you are sensible enough to always use jack stands, but I do know from experience (as a garage owner) that common sense isn't always as common as we would like, unfortunately. The thought of such a tool perishing and suddenly bursting while supporting something heavy, rather than coming down in a controlled manner, is more than scary.
Aside from any safety concerns, though, that is a very cool tool and I would want it to serve me well for many years. 👍
I'm not suggesting that Vevor would use inferior bags, by the way. But I _have_ seen bags burst violently at less pressure than one would imagine, so even though I would expect that these bags are rigorously tested at way higher than operating pressure, the sun doesn't care about any of that. So a quick spray of 303 once a month would be my routine with a product llike this.
Thanks for the tip, yep, always use axle stands. When I was little, we had a neighbour who was paralysed from the waist down for that very reason. I think of him every time I get under a car.
With a review could have included weight, can it be used with any sort of tyre inflator pump, where is it made, warranty.
All good suggestions, I'll try to remember these for next time. Thank you
I've got an air jack, not sure if it's a vivor , different handle with air below the grip, had it a few years now. Still works as new, tho my main hyd trolley jack gets most usage. Only drawback is it does need to be on h/d wheels for when lifting, it doesn't follow the articulation when raising the vehicle .
Nice advert Dave hehe
😊😊🤣
Easier than pumping away on a jack handle .. think the feed hose could be upgraded.
nice bit of kit but does it work with lowered cars? looks too high for a lowered car.
It don't fit under my mx5
If its too high it will not work then
Will depend on ground clearance.
How low is it at the lowest height? I already have to drive my car onto blocks to get a trolley jack under it.
145mm
Would be grateful with a small 12v compresor bolted on it for when you can't get a air lead to reach
That was the longest advert I have skipped through.

It's interesting to see how redundant muscles are becoming as time goes on💪🦾
