I’ve got a Vevor pcp air compressor (for airguns) and it’s pretty much identical to some other “branded” compressors I’ve seen advertised! As you say, Chinesium manufacturers do copy most things! Oh and careful with that bung on the Sealy… I’ve got a similar jack with a rubber bung and they seem to leak once removed and put back!
Looks to me like they are made in same factory with slightly differing product specs where i work we make stuff shal we say for many different customers and every recipe is slightly different to. So probably side by side production lines or poss. set runs of say 100 Sealey 100 vevor 100 100 Halfords Etc. but all will be much of a muchness as you have found out and all will share some parts to save costs.
After watching this video I have purchased the Vevor one. During the first use , lifting the back of my Passat , the jack failed. I found few broken bits on the floor put them back in the box and send the hole bit to the seller.
Hi Ant . Thanks for another great video. At 17.10 minutes into video you are lifting city bug with both jacks. I noted the 2 jacks are not at right angles to the car when lifting. They appear to be pointing towards the opposite front wheels. I only have 1 trolley jack, but I always lift at right angles to the side of the car. Interesting how lift when using 2 trolley jacks. Does it matter?
As long as the jacks can move towards each other no issues, pointing towards each other is best, but if working on front wheels I angle slightly to allow more working room, also if the front doors meed to be opened angle differently again. another point is how level is the ground, angle the jack so it wont roll down hill, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
What size axle stands to buy to get really good clearance from the ground, if for example doing a clutch and the get the gearbox out easily (using the featured jacks)? Cheers.
Can’t decide between the Sealey 2001 or the Sealey 2500 any recommendations? Both are basically same price. 2500 has a 3 year warranty we’re the 2001 has a 1 year warranty
Would NEVER waste money on another leaky Sealey low entry jack that doesn't hold pressure from new now matter how much new oil & bleeding is tried, awful products 😮
Sealey doesn't look like a deathtrap like the Vevor. If you want to do the same job but increase the risk of a failure then buy the cheap Vevor. Tiny circlips versus 24mm bolts for the front wheels? No contest. Laughable chinese crap.
I recently bought the vevor 2.5 ton trolley jack. I'm very happy with it. Thanks for doing the review.
Its a cracking bit of kit, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠

What bit broke? do you have a photo I would love to see it, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
@@aaanton11 one of the safety rings snapped. Where can I upload the photo?
Great video - when lifting the volvo / BMW was it on the chassis box section.
Thanks
They have plastic jacking points on all four corners and one in the middle of the subframe at the front, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠

Prob made to an original design thats 50 years old
Yes you might be right Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
