Default What do you think??

I found a kit that consists of a 2 ton jack and an impact wrench that run off your cigarette lighter. The jack has a clearance of 5.5" and the impact wrench comes with 4 different size sockets.

I was thinking some of you might be interested in something like this for races and car shows. To go to a show/race in your street tires and then be able to easily change to your race tires or to jack the car up and lower the coilovers, etc.

Would anyone be interested in something like this and what would you expect to pay?

I seriously doubt the fuse for the cigarette lighter could power an impact wrench strong enough to remove lug nuts.


I bought an battery powered 400 ft/lb impact with 2 battery packs ($300) and then went to the junkyard for a scissor jack ($5) with a 19mm nut on the screwbolt. the impacts spins up the jack and lifts each corner of the car in seconds. it is used again for the lug nuts.

the expectations are still in doubt since the final phase would only happen after seeing it from the front
