Good lifting capacity this jack has.
But Beware,this bottle jack needs hard ground and flat surface,ie no incline,otherwise it can lift from one side/will topple over.Its due to narrow base area.

That's a good tool. I am seeing this for the first time. I knew it existed but thanks for posting the pictures. Now MTB enthusiasts will have a reference.
yes doc il be using this at my home mainly for DIY maintenance only.Most works not needing the wheel coming of viz.under body washing or greasing prop shafts can be achieved without needing to lift vehicle .I just put it on the inclined ramp and comfortably sneak under the belly of TANTOR![[cheers]](https://www.theautomotiveindia.com/forums/images/smilies/Cheers.gif "Cheers [cheers]")
.Just that if i want to get to the breaks or clean the wheels properly i need them off

This is precisely what I am warning about. On inclines this thing starts tilting. Just be careful. Best of luck.
I meant to say I don't use jacks on inclines as TANTOR has more than enough ground clearance..putting him on an incline creates more space to work underbelly !will post pics for understanding .

New tool update :
for long I had been wanting to buy a hydraulic jack .Bit the bullet and bought a bottle jack after suggestions from other members also.
Its a 12 ton bottle jack ! why 12 ton ? I first got a 4-ton jack which when i placed it under TANTOR( yeah I have named my T-fort) looked like it would never even reach the jacking point on the frame even after full extension of the ram head .I returned it and got the next bigger sized which was 12 ton in the GROZ range .This fits under Tantor and does the job well.Sturdy and heavily built it should last a lifetime .

This magnetic puller I am seeing for the first time. It's a unique tool.
Your battery charger is it a Russian brand?
Craftsman is a very reputed brand. Guaranteed forever, it's written!!! Impressive.

Hello Friends,
Finally my car gets new engine oil and I felt smoothness right after driving.![[:D]](https://www.theautomotiveindia.com/forums/images/smilies/Big%20Smile.gif "Big Smile [:D]")
I got the Motul 8100 X-Cess 5w40 yesterday (Amazon had stock in Bangalore so reached me quick). Today I thought to change the oil and drain bolt was easy to reach but the bolt was so tight that I couldn't twist a bit and I don't have breaker bar nor there is much space. May be ASC used impact wrench to tight it or due to heat it has seized. So I left it as is and went to nearby mall.
My brother saw new Bosch service center and forced me to ask them whether they change engine oil (Of course they will) and pricing. They seemed good, friendly and quoted Rs. 350. After an hour, I returned with new oil and filter. Without any delays, they started the work. First they jacked up the car and tried to remove the drain bolt but damn, after struggling for half an hour with many different tools they also couldn't remove it!![[frustration]](https://www.theautomotiveindia.com/forums/images/smilies/Frustration.gif "Frustration [frustration]")
The garage had many non-repairable vehicles (Shop owner was angry because car owners were not taking the car out) and one GM Captiva was standing on repair pit. Shop owner called for several workers and pushed the SUV aside to make space for my car. The repair pit has lots of space and the drain bolt came out easily. The filter was also tight fit, they had several filter wrenches and also mine didn't help so they had to puncture it to remove. Fortunately drain bolt and washer was good. They have gently tightened the drain bolt and new oil filter. Hope they can be removed easily next time.
Next poured the new oil while checking the level on dipstick and approx 3.8l of oil went inside the engine block. However, when I returned home and checked dipstick again, the oil was slightly above the upper mark. I was not ok with it, so in the evening I went to medical shop and bought infusion set and syringe. Inserted the tube via dipstick pipe, pulled the oil using 5ml syringe and holding roller clamp inbetween so the oil doesn't return to sump. After removing 50ml of oil, it is now upto upper mark.
Thats it. This DIY was difficult then expected and really needed repair pit. Lets see what happens next time.![[:)]](https://www.theautomotiveindia.com/forums/images/smilies/Smile.gif "Smile [:)]")
