[TR] [Shop-talk] Scissor Lift

[DAVID MASSEY]

I have the 3500 model and it fits between the wheels on a TR6.  (I measured before ordering.)  I don't know if the spitfire has a shorter wheelbase but if it does you might have issues here as it just barely fits within the TR6 wheelbase.

Hi,  Ben,
My quick jack ( https://www.quickjack.com/?gad_source=1) has worked very well for me and my TR-4. I have the 5000 model.

Hi Greg,
I was looking at these today, as my local big box home store (Lowe's) has them on sale for an attractive price, plus I get an additional 5% off.
 I note that you have placed it inboard of the tires - I had given up on the 5000 model because it won't fit at the jacking points.  Do you find the stability of the raised car to be questionable with the jacks closer to the center?

I also have a Spitfire,and the same problem appears in spades.  I'm not sure if even the 3500 would fit the jacking points on that car.
