    I was recommended that I get the 1.5ton version as I have heard that that 1.25ton jacks can blow their seals with cars of the M3 weight.


    Tis the one I have too, nice bit o kit

    although mine just sat in the garage at spa, no tyre changing solutions for me

    The smallest jacks I have start at 25 tonnes mate !! up to 100 tonnes.

    I would go 1.5 tonnes, as a rule, I try and only use 80% of capacity, always leave a bit in reserve, and seals prob last longer spending less time at max load.

    I was looking at the 1.25t Clarke too but was a bit curious as to the SWL. It seems 1.25 is plenty though aye? I've got a Halfords 2t job but its too bloody high and one of these days I'm going to end up damaging the bodywork...

    group buy anyone? :hahaha:
