Anyone have or use an air bag jack? I'm thinking I need one, and wonder what's out there. I think it would be nice to have one that is about 3" deflated, and a foot or so inflated and good for a few thousand pounds with some sort of control device attached.
Just wondering if you guys use or have seen them.
Thanks.

Yep I have one.
Work very well, on the other hand by the time unpack it, un fold it , layit out, get it pumped up, then deflate fold up and put away...it far easier to get out the small floor jeck I keep in the trunk and throw under and pump up.

which do you have?
Not looking for the exhaust hook up one, the compressed air is what I want.

Compressed air has an adapter that fits into the spark plug

Steptoe, I meant compressed air from an air compressor from my garage. Sorry for my misrepresentation.

I'm looking for something portable, and something lighter weight than a traditional floor jack. I have several of those. And something that fits in confined spaces.

yeah can use spark plug and /or compressor......the spark plug adapter saves lugging the workshop compressor around in the backseat lol
