    Just from my personal experience, don't get away from the Hi-Lift brand. Offroad jacks are dangerous enough as it is and when ive attempted to use the off brands ive found they done like to climb as smoothly or descent, but that's just me. I picked up my black 60" hilift for $90 from a local hunting/fishin/camping store

    Absolutely, I bought one of the wal mart brand ones on a whim and while it does work it is not confidence inspiring at all. If I remember correctly the first time I used it the tip of one of the pins broke off and made it even worse.

    Dang carb crapped out and needed a full rebuilt.. So I've got a weber on its way! Hope it'll climb a hill, but if not a little modification may go down to a new carb. Lol

    i got my hi-lift 60" and love it but i'm afraid i got a bad one, it will climb but doesn't seem to want to go done as easily as it is supposed to. meaning i have to mess with it a bit for it to click down.

    Drew is it possible to do a myside carb from a harley on a toyota? They do that for samurais, and it helps hill climbing a lot, almost as good as EFI supposedly.

    I've never seen anyone put one on a 22r.


    My Weber came in today, but I've gotta wait on the Fuel Pressure Regulator to come in. I'm gonna get it on there tomorrow and try and figure out all the vacuum stuff. Lord help me because this is one of my first times ever working with a carb'd motor as far as tuning and blocking off and rerouting lines.


    I bought a Kawasaki Bayou 250 yesterday for real cheap. Gotta do some carb work on it to get it running. (easy fix. done small engine carbs 100000x's). Anyone wanna buy a 4wheeler? It'll run good and have new tires in a week or two. Lol
