Great idea but the contact area on the ground is far too small to be safe. Axle stands have at least three spread contact points for a very good reason.
That's not a problem IF both wheels on the other side stay on the ground as shown in the video to prevent the car moving sideways or rotating around the vertical axis. I'm more worried about during the lifting, nothing really stopping the trolley jack from rolling forward/back and the thing collapsing. I don't see anything keeping it firmly connected and aligned to the head of the jack. That needs a better connection.
Concept is good. 1. I would make the bar long enough to pick up the factory jack points, but it would need a vertical reinforcement plate to carry the load. 2. I would use real jack stands to support the car in the air. Of course, by the time you do all of that, it would be easier to just buy a second floor jack.
Would love to see this with a multi sleeve legs. Instead of two tubes have four and also have it on both sides of the car. Connected together. You would jack up and pin the first two tubes together one side then the other. Then extend down the center and jack up again. At this point you pin the second tube to the third. Repeat on the other side. Twice the lift. Then jack it up again. And pin the third tube to the fourth. For three times the lift.
If the jack rolls back while you're lifting it the car's coming down it's only stable in 1 axis, in the other axis you're effectively balancing the car on the end of a pipe. Once it's resting on the legs it's a little more stable but I wouldn't go under it. Also on a heavier car that seam will just fold it's not a jacking point.
Not a bad idea as long as the rubber covered parts both contact where the normal jacking points are front & rear. I'd also make base plates bigger to avoid tipping over.
As a mechanical engineer I can tell you that some of it is a great idea BUT the base is nowhere near large enough to be safe to work under a car. You would be better off having the horizontal element and jacking up with that then using Jack stands under neath once it was at a workable height. It would be far safer. Lifting one side is a great idea rather than front or rear due to access issues, just make another bar and 2 more axle stands and it would be okay. You definitely couldn’t lift both sides with bases like that.
How many sills is this going to ruin especially on cars with specific jacking points.You’re also only jacking on the edge of spot welded panels not on strengthened areas also as another commenter has stated it is only working in one axis.
I have been doing something similar by using a unistrut with the open groove end facing up to cover down facing lip on my vehicle. The unistrut spans the entire length of my vehicle from back of front tire to front of rear tire, where one would normally place the vehicle jack. There's a hole in the middle of the unistrut that fits onto my floorjack after I remove the jack pad. It works perfectly but I should add those to end supports in order to remove the jack, though it's not entirely neccesary. The mod in the video should seriously have wider foot supports. I would have made large diameter circle feet with a tapered cylinder steel or at least welded steel legs tapered. Nonetheless, good idea.
it’s a really good concept, tell U why in a second. A few small adjustments. As said, base should be bigger, & welded or braced for any sideways not so perfect forces. top pinchweld connectors should be about 3-4” straight with a few small walls on each side & rubber on bottom of that, welded for sideways forces. top bar should be adjustable for left right extensions to find pinchweld locations on watevr vehicle. bottom jack connector should have a spot for all kinds of jacks(FYI, although car curves away the further it’s lifted, on rough or slightly tilted terrain, bottle jax & scissor jacks are only jacks that at least go straight up/down. garage jacks curve away & roll to adjust their own location, but on gravel & stuff?, other jax are beter). why ideas so great.. 1/2 the jacking &&& the real ingenuousness of this idea is factories/dealers have attempted to set things up so people can EITHER jack up car OR put it on jaxstands, & your invention has circumvNted that BS... NICE dUd👋😑
Опасная не устойчивая консоукция, может подвернуться и свалиться. Ножки должны быть широкие,с очень широкими упорами, что-бы устойчиво стояли и не свернулись при покачивании, что-бы не опрокинулся автомобиль.
hi, excelent idea. However, it would be safer if it was supported sideway to prevent vehicle sliding and would be better it it had adjustable sliding run rather than welding.
Great idea, however ! Your applying say 1/2 a ton per wheel over two very small prices of steel 3”” x 2”” x 1/4 “ I believe that it Isn’t ’ stable and very dangerous I suggest for safety reason that you increase the area of the base plates to a square 6” x6” on each foot. The issue is like the ladies with high stiletto heals. The weight is to great over the area of the base..
No entiendo cuál es su función. Si alcanza con levantar el vehículo y ponerle debajo un caballete rígido o regulable de una mayor superficie de apoyo y listo. Sin tanta elaboración...
That thumb nail is so dangerously clickbait 😆 sombody is gonna scroll and see that and be like okay hell yeah.... inspecting the picture you can see it will slip off the only single contact point at the base. Aweful idea.
Stop! Please use manufacture specific jacking points. Just behind the front wheel on the ford transits have a robust square section of chassis which is ideal for axel stands. Them feet are far to small
Let's hope that the construction will only slightly hurt our genius. The construction itself is ridiculous and dangerous, because it has to many degrees of freedom.
another novel idea, but there is no way you're getting all that bulk under something like a Corvette or any other lowered car. Alot of normal jacks have an issue with this though, so you're not alone.
I’m sorry but that is very unsafe, you need a more sturdy base on the ground. Also it’s never a good idea to Jack up a car by the pinch welds, they can easily bend.
Perfect example of a generally good idea with an awful implementation. Sorry it went straight to a "thumbs down"! Do you realize the damage to the panels that will occur from lifting the weight of the vehicle from those tiny support point?! It's serious damage and honestly rather expensive to repair! Beside that, it's SO OBVIOUS fact the base is incredibly thin. It's an accident waiting to happen! Now we are beyond vehicle damage, to the right out dangerous! Revised can be a real thumbs up. But as it is dangerous garbage! ;-)
Странный подход, объясню-домкрат подкатной а ножки-упоры стоят на месте поэтому домкрат едет под машину ,а защита , нет и это видно как автор пападает в отверстие на противоположной стороне ,соответственно они стоят криво ,требуется дороботка,а так интересная приспсоба и домкрат всегда можно убрать для других целей
Nah, totally unsafe. The small amount you’ve lifted it up by isn’t worth, any higher and you’d have lost it as the trolley was on the verg of flying backwards
Great idea but the contact area on the ground is far too small to be safe. Axle stands have at least three spread contact points for a very good reason.
agreed, needs to be wider feet on ground contact

It needs a wider stance to be more safe. The idea is marvelous, I really like it.
All good till that pinch weld on the car folds.....very common on a BMW.
Agreed, maybe two jack stand bases but great concept.
I agree its not stable enough it also need sides put on it also
What does that matter
He still only have one lift point. The middle
Spettacolo grande idea
This is pretty Clever!
Like your welding.
Very good idea of invention.

Buenos días hermano excelente herramienta te felicito saludo y muchas bendiciones 🙏 desde Venezuela Carabobo Ali Molina
Should have used a couple of old brake discs as the base... Those little things will tip. I wouldn’t get under that car!!!
This idea is very intelligent
Round tubes are welded then they can slide with a pin? I don't get it.
As a mechanical engineer I can tell you that some of it is a great idea BUT the base is nowhere near large enough to be safe to work under a car.

Great, I would like to see a video with you working under it. Just a thought.
Hola cómo estás ..muchas gracias x el vídeo y la idea!!!👍👍👍muy muy bueno!!!

EXCELENT IDEA, YOU SOLVE MY PROBLEM, I WAS DESIGNIN A LIFEHACK, AND WITH THIS IDEA I GOT TO THE FINAL IDEA, I LL TRY TO MAKE A VIDEO AND TAG YOU !
Best of luck
And thank you very much for being my son. Appreciate it everything make sure you like and share and subscribe
Jack stands work great! And cheaper and much safer that that hack for sure!
😂
gyonyoru a hegesztes de nincs befelyezve mivel konnyen burul es csinalha balesetet
Great Idea, where did you buy the steel bar to lift the vehicle? or what is the thickness that the bar must have to support the weight?
I am using big woods for stand. Woods can stand a lot of tons.100% safety.
buena herramienta solo que hay que aumentar O ampliar las bases.

what's up with the leaky floor jack and tiny pads on the ground? Terrific idea though.
Ich habe gesehen, dass du das selbst gemacht hast, gute Idee.
kannst du mir einen bauen...
Great idea except maybe make the ground base wider for each
Many improvements are needed to be safer and more universal.
Опасная не устойчивая консоукция, может подвернуться и свалиться.
Ножки должны быть широкие,с очень широкими упорами, что-бы устойчиво стояли и не свернулись при покачивании, что-бы не опрокинулся автомобиль.
complimenti! è una trappola per farsi male!?
Parabéns top
Nice idea, the jack is losing oil tho hm?
Would like one where can you buy??, or does anyone know of something similar, and where you get it.
It’s a good start but I would not get under that the bases are not wide enough I think a tip over on you
Muy buen invento para facilitar el trabajo bendiciones
Look great now you need a better floor jack .
Before I see the video I know it will be great
Thanks 🙏

Mausefalle beim Hochpumpen. Das Teil kann einfach wegklappen, wenn es etwas schräg kommt.
Вещь очень хорошая, но лучше бы нижние площадки опор сделать круглыми, будет поустойчивее
Вещь очень нехорошая как инструмент очень ненадежная устойчивость.
Лучше бы домкрат починил, чем варил эту приблуду.
Nice idea but dangerous ⚠️

Qué rollo con la seguridad de las bases 😅😅😅perfeccionalas

Ottima idea bravo 👏...ma credo che ampliare la base d'appoggio inferiore sia migliore.
Super

Yo lo haría de esa manera, aunque de 3 patas. Más seguridad.
Very good idea, love it, fairplay👍
Thank you
Is necesari cars bery up .
Why not have 2 jack stands and weld a horizontal bar on them? This should take care of stable ground contact
Nice job. We featured this video in our homemade tools forum this week :)
Реклама перед видео про нищебродов ...полный отстой. А видео 👍, добавил в закладки.
My only suggestion to improve this contraption would be - get a good life insurance policy, your family will thank you after you’re gone.
Ottima idea 💡💡💡
Super idée et jolie fabrication mais il faudrait commencer par réparer la fuite du cric hydraulique :)
Stop! Please use manufacture specific jacking points. Just behind the front wheel on the ford transits have a robust square section of chassis which is ideal for axel stands. Them feet are far to small
excellent idea. but i would make the footing bigger and longer to prevent tipping.
I agree with you
Let's hope that the construction will only slightly hurt our genius.

Качнет машину в сторону и свалится она, не было бы только людей рядом. Не продумано до конца идея.
Nice work.
Great idea but am I the only one that sees it resting crooked? I would not trust that.
tous simplement génial
Buen día tienes que reparar en primer lugar el gato caimán tiene una perdida de aceite es un peligro...

No different to using an axle stand dont see the point in all of that work???
What sort of welding is this, anyone know?
MIG I'd say
а если порогов нет?
Have you never heard of axle stands.....
これ…意味があるのか?
Super peligroso e inestable, no me pondria debajo del auto con ese dispositivo ni loco!!
Good idea just doesn't go very high
Зря ты на ребро оперся надо прорези делать😊
you need new seals in your jack 😉
Just like the music you're missing bass!
another novel idea, but there is no way you're getting all that bulk under something like a Corvette or any other lowered car. Alot of normal jacks have an issue with this though, so you're not alone.
I'm pretty sure he made it for his car, and wasn't worrying about corvettes.
FAR TOO UNSTABLE! ASKING FOR DAMAGE TO CAR AN ACCIDENT WAITING TO HAPPEN.

Agree
give you a 5 out of 10
Peligroso se ve peligroso
Totally unsafe! Requires 3 foot prints & larger feet, at least! But gave me an idea/design in my head for some of my vehicles.

There is already a four post product of this type called Myliftstand
A car should never be lifted by the pinch welds.
Вообще не понятно, для чего это изобретение???!

Nah, totally unsafe. The small amount you’ve lifted it up by isn’t worth, any higher and you’d have lost it as the trolley was on the verg of flying backwards
Great idea. Mind you I wouldn't trust the welding. Needed to be done on much higher amps..
