Mini Crocodile Jack

[red07]

Mini Crocodile 2ton Jacks are on sale. Anyone of you guys tried this kind of jack? Bukod sa cute , Reliable kaya ito? Thanks!

i have one and used it once pa lang during atf change.

ok naman siya. yung nga lang dapat sa hard flat surface mo siya gamitin kasi may gulong siya na uusod habang tumataas yung car. nung ginamit ko yung sa akin eh sa graba nakapark yung car. buti ndi nasira kahit mejo pinuwersa ko hehehe.

nway some things to consider is mabigat siya kesa dun sa stock jack na kotse (yung de-ikot or screw). bulky din lalo na pag sinama mo yung case niya. pero mas ma lift mo yung kotse mo using this as compared to the screw type jack.

So far, so good sila. But not all croc jacks can lift as high as the other, even if all of them say they can lift 2 tons. Some crocs can't lift my Camry's rear when it's on non-stock rims. Just check the jack as per application, if their lift is sufficient.

As to the weight and bulk, yes, that's true. But as to convenience, that's true also. It makes short work of changing a flat.

meron din ako nito. made in china siya pero okay naman siya.
kabilin-bilinan na lang nung binilhan ko na hindi pwede ito sa van/auv/suv, talagang pang-tsikot lang daw ang jack na ito.

So yung mga pang suv eh yung conventional jack lang?

Meron bang crocodile jack na pang suv like crv?

I have a KYK brand 2-ton crocodile jack that I use for my Carnival. I've only used it twice to change or dismount tires, but after using the conventional jack to change my minivan's tire the first time I had a flat, all I can is that crocodile jacks are well worth their weight and bulkiness.

i have it in my car kyk brand, mas ok gamitin to unlike sa screw type na jack..

Depende kung ang ride mo ay oto lang ... the 2ton crocs would be enough. Sa pick-up or SUV ... go for the 5ton big crocs.

ganyan gamit ko.nabili ko dati sa handyman.
so far ok naman

[red07]

Thank you po sa mga inputs.

Sa tsikot ko lang naman gagamitin just in case na ma-flattan ako.

Bibili nko mamaya. Salamat po ulit!!!

Croc jacks can handle compact SUVs like the CRV for as long as their arm goes up that high. Ace Hardware or TruValue probably won't allow you to test their jacks, but auto shops will. You might want to scope out some auto shops and check how high you need the croc jack's arm needs to go.

I don't know what brand mini croc jack a shop in the south used, but the guy was able to jack my Prado and put it on "stilts" (or whatever it is you call them).

meron din akong 2-ton mini croc. one time ay hiniram sakin at ginamit sa light truck isuzu elf mini na may karga at nakaya nya. hindi naman sya nasira, matibay din pala talaga yan.

[Flatfender]

I am also planning to buy one. I have seen KYK being sold malapit sa amin and also noted that two (2) tsikoteers who responded are using KYK. Are there any other brand na tested na ng ibang fellow tsikoteers!

TIA!

W+F! Got same symptom w/ the TS. Got my 2-ton croc in Banawe c/o "habol boys" for 850 petot. Served its purpose for only once, then this afternoon during cargo space re-org, discovered yung tagas ng oil sa case nya,, opened it and ayun, napamura na ako!! Bumigay na nga oil seal ng pump.

Would you guys know the going rate for a good quality 2-tonner croc? Di kasi ako comfortable sa stock scissor jack of my CRV gen1.

In short,, beware of those cheapy 2-tonner crocs, madaling bumigay ang oil-seal nya.
