Default Reccomend me a jack?

As the title, the time has come to buy a new jack (mine has packed in and won't hold pressure anymore.) Anyhow it was only a cheapie and lasted 5 years so diddnt do bad out if it :-)

Don't want to spend a fortune but would like a decent jack as I like to keep the scoob in tip top condition.

Cheers

I cannot recommend these highly enough. I have pictures in my 'members gallery' thread. Great piece of kit.

I've not heard of SGS until today. They look like some great kit for the price and have all the features that you need.

Has anyone tried their roll cabinets?

The Costco ones are superb. Can't recommend mine enough. Although they weigh an absolute ton. And I can second the comment about the parking space being a way away. I have that problem too lol.

But seriously , you won't go wrong with the Costco one. And they'll take it back no quibble if you need to.
