- ScottGNomadI bought mine at the beginning of last season after hearing about them here on this forum.
They really are the greatest! - 2oldmanExplorer III like them too.. but my fiver is apparently too heavy. They break at the 'belly button'. It's Andersen.

I've heard that several times. Seems like 10K# may be the breaking point for them.
That's a pity - they need to make a stronger version. - pianotunaNomad IIIHi 2oldman,
They will send replacements. One of mine failed and I know the load on it was less than 4000 pounds. They are rated for 24,000 pounds.
I do wish they went up six inches instead of 4. If I had it to "do over" I might well go for their 8 inch "jack" model. - 2oldmanExplorer II

Yes, they will, but I just keep breaking them.
Hi 2oldman,they will send replacements. - DutchmenSportExplorerHow well do they work on dirt-grass or sand? especially after a rain. I would think they would sink in the ground if they were used on anything less than a solid foundation, like concrete, asphalt, or gravel. Can anyone
- acritzerExplorer IIWow, first time I've seen these. Look interesting, but I know my wife would be thinking "won't we roll off the back?" The pictures with the tire near the back of the curved piece would freak her out. To be perfectly honest, it makes me a bit nervous too.
Do people ever find ways to block the back end of the tire? - 2oldmanExplorer II

No, you don't roll off the back, unless of course part of your tire is hanging off the back.

If you need that much lift, use one on each tire, or, put a large board under the leveler first. - acritzerExplorer II

I know you really wouldn't, but that doesn't take away the uncomfortable feeling. - 2oldmanExplorer IIWhat seems odd to me is that they don't specify any weight limit, and they don't appear to be modifying their manufacturing process to fix this.
