bought four back in 2017 - they were purple. Not for moving cars but to move inboard boats around for storage. They work great, no problems. Thumbs up. Were a better deal than those expensive go-jacks. Maybe not the best for heavy vehicles, but they move the boats around perfectly. Why pay over three hundred bucks per as long as you know they're for light duty use.
I appreciate the review Pat. I'm sure you easily doubled the usable life of those wheels by adding that grease. Like you, I also always check for grease in any new bearing I buy. It's sad how many times I've seen different bearings - brand new - with zero grease or not nearly enough grease - from the factory. Even sealed ball bearings! Pitiful! Also, I'd have loved to seen the process of jacking them up. That's been my primary concern with these units. I'm also concerned about the jack levers potentially coming into contact with the body or frame of the car. Were either of these an issue for you?
Hey Teejay, I thought about showing how they work but there's a lot of videos showing that. I had a hard time finding a video showing how easy it is to move the car. No issue with the frame hitting them as they are pretty low profile, on the outside you do need to make sure to give the handle clearance room from the body. I have mine about 1-2 inches from the body. That's plenty of room as long as you use a little care when pumping the jack with your foot. They are very easy to use. Thanks for watching!
Thanks for the review. I'm a little surprised that they're $130 per wheel (as of 2/24). That doesn't seem like the bargain-basement price I expect from Harbor Freight.
Even at $130 they are half the price of the GOJAKs. With that being said I would not have spent $520 plus tax for them as I don't need them that bad. You do have to wait until the stuff you want is on sale at HF. Thanks for watching!

I agree with you 100%. Thanks for watching!
