Can anyone tell me the difference if any other than manufacturer? Is one really better than the other?
I have a jackall though I have none of the accessories, anyone tell me where to find them?
thx

Same stuff different pile really.

I think national sells a really nice hi lift accessory bag. I bought one there once.

Last week, Princess auto had 3 different hi-lifts in stock, the regular, a heavy duty and another, Can't remember the prices, but they nearly always have good vprices at PA.

I have a Jack-all from Canadian Tire. It works.

Becareful of the FARM jacks from PA because they are not the same as Jackalls or Hi-Lifts, they are of cheaper quality and I do not believe they are rated the same

PA may have had farm jacks but i was there too and they have/had genuine hi-lifts on the floor. they weren't priced yet though. it's on my xmas list, just have to make it back there to see which of the 3 i'd want.

I think the onnly difference is a Jackall has a welded handle, whereas a HiLift has a removable handle.

But I could be wrong. I have a jackall, and I just wish it was a taller one.

The hi-lift brand has much smoother and predictable moving parts.
