I like the jack and it's small size for easy storage. But, am I the only person who is concerned about lifting a mower by the deck? Would rather lift by the frame. Looks like no problem, even after many uses? Thank you for the video.
Glad you liked the video. No issues with the jack so far lifting the mower by the deck. They have been making those jacks for many years. Thanks for watching.
Lawn Care Business Success , I agree trucks are expensive and we need them for our bussiness. Ask your friends and family if they have a truck and in the future want to get rid of it to keep you in mind. What’s wrong with the truck ?if it’s the tranny it’s worth it to pay the $3000 to get a rebuilt one.
I prefer the narrow design of this unit. It can be used for both large and even small mowers like the Exmark commercial 30. The narrow design does not get in the way and does not obstruct access while working on the mower. The narrow design does not take up as much space and can be stored easily or even taken with you in a trailer for on site use. If you watch my jungle Jim’s products video from GIE expo you can see a demonstration of this jack being used to lift even a large zero turn mower with relative ease. Here’s a link to that video. Thanks for watching. ruclips.net/video/agKYHoPPMD0/видео.html
Hydraulic jack would be easier to lift big mowers I suppose but also much bigger and harder to store. I also would not want to be working under a mower with a hydraulic jack holding it up in case of failure. This one is pretty solid build quality and can lift some pretty big mowers. I like the compact design. Thanks for watching.
Yes it should. It has a lifting capacity of 800 pounds. When your lifting a mower like a ztr most of the weight is at the back, so it’s no issue lifting just the front. The jungle jack is never supporting the entire weight of the mower, just usually lifting the front. Thanks for watching.
Actually it can be mounted in either hole. Depends on what’s more comfortable for you. If you look at the instruction manual on page 4 the first diagram naming all the parts shows it mounted as you explain, but when you get to the assembly instructions for mounting the foot assist on page 5, it says to put the bottom of the foot assist on the top hole and the picture diagram shows it how I installed it. Thanks for watching.

What would be the advantage of this over Ballard's V@ Jack? Ballard has 2 lift hooks, more substantial tires and roughly the same price.

Considering that or one with hydraulic jack???

Great video showing the jack! Looks like a great product 🙄
It certainly is a very well thought out design. Thanks for watching. I appreciate you taking the time.
How wide is the hook? My deck has a 2 inch lip on it and I don’t know if the hook can accommodate it. Thanks
The hook is almost 2.5”. Thanks for watching.
You probably should put the safety jack underneath first before missing with the safety pin
Will it safely left the front of a 950 LB zero turn mower, Sense it would only be lifting the front half at the point of lift
Yes it should. It has a lifting capacity of 800 pounds. When your lifting a mower like a ztr most of the weight is at the back, so it’s no issue lifting just the front. The jungle jack is never supporting the entire weight of the mower, just usually lifting the front. Thanks for watching.
I see you didn’t get a new truck. Didn’t you have some issues with your truck a few months ago?
Yes, I still have some issues. I just can’t decide on what to get, plus trucks are ridiculously expensive.
You mounted the foot bar in the wrong hole. It goes in the lower hole, the notches are there to fit around the bolt heads above the mounting hole.
Actually it can be mounted in either hole. Depends on what’s more comfortable for you. If you look at the instruction manual on page 4 the first diagram naming all the parts shows it mounted as you explain, but when you get to the assembly instructions for mounting the foot assist on page 5, it says to put the bottom of the foot assist on the top hole and the picture diagram shows it how I installed it.

Ballard v jack
The foot pedal screw is too tight. It needs to come down easily.
