Purple Line KoJack (Jack & Level)

Have recently purchased jack and fitted the jacking points

Fortunately not had to use it yet except to test

Be aware however that older stock of single axle Kojack is supplied with large jacking point which would not fit my van because mud flap meant there was not clearance

Eventually ascertained that new stock came supplied with smaller jacking point, and when I eventually found a supplier who had these in stock fitting was no problem 

Were you happy when you tested it?

Draper sell a 2 tonne bottle jack ref 39054 

Don't know anything about them except that they are cheap, about £20

I fitted one to mu Sprite Alpine a couple of years ago, it was my choice due the robust build of the chassis brackets, Never used it with a flat bu have used it to remove the wheels. A far better solution when compared to the Alko fittings stronger and more positive location for safety

Yes happy when tested 

No problems 

The USP of the Kojack is that the bottle jack comes with special brackets that you can bolt on to the chasis, so that the jack locks in to them securely and is in no danger of slipping.  The jack itself is an ordinary bottle jack.

I had one and found it very good. (The levelling bit is a gimmick though, no use at all to me).

Thanks all, this is really very helpful.  To be honest I'm only interested in it for the fitting of Alko locks.  

Tempted to take the plunge on one as it seems to be the sensible middle ground option between trolley jack and locknlevel.

To rotate the wheel to fit an ALko lock you will need the brakes off.  Even if jacked up and the other side wedged this could be dangerous IMO.

If you have a mover fitted, fitting an ALko lock is straightforward.  If not, I'd suggest getting a different make of wheel lock that is less hassle.

We find fitting an Alko easy on the current single axlre van, but as we are about to take delivery of a twin axle which is going to be a completely different situation.
