Off the top of my head:- that would depend on the CFM of your compressor and the cubic capacity of the air jack and maybe the weight of the vehicle.In the Beginning there was nothing, which exploded.

Dunno, will be able to confirm on Friday if it's up to the job. Will start a new thread with the details if it's worth getting as this one is for Andrews Takla group buyThe End
If we decide the 4K kg ARB X-jack is up to the task the retail price is $199us. So we might be able to get a great deal for those paying in Pounds with the current exchange rate.
*UPDATE* A US forum LRRFORUMS.com is exploring a group buy on the X-Jack. There are 5 people signed-up (in two days), so if the Friday test goes well we could look to group the group-buys.

So we have 9 showing an interest in the Takla jack, with 8 confirmed. Pelmya being the first to confirm as he had ordered his before we started this group buy. APB have 5 Jacks in stock one of these already reserved for Pelyma, so that leaves 4 jacks up for grabs to the remaining 7, I am happy to wait till the next shipment in may for my 2nd Jack as I already have one. So being diplomatic how do we decide who gets first grabs at the remaining 4 jacks If 4 of you are happy to wait till may then no problem.
Comments please.In the Beginning there was nothing, which exploded.

Andrew I'm happy to wait until the next batch, as hopefully i'll not need it for the lakes and someone there may have one...

From the horses mouth. Email from APB.
Regarding Takla Air Jacks the 2.5 tonne jack that you have had from us will lift a vehicle in excess 5 tonne gross. I have spoken to Takla themselves, they have said that you will not need a larger Air Jack to lift Discovery 3 fully loaded. We have presently five in stock which you could have immediately, with five more to follow on the next container.In the Beginning there was nothing, which exploded.
