Cheap Chinese Knock Off or Exceeded Capacity?

[Mudderoy]

What do you think?

Is this a cheap knock off (Tractor Supply) or just a jack that someone used on something that exceeded it's design?

Im surprised it bent like that rather than fracturing somewhere in the holes.

A better pic would help ... but it looks a bit like a JackAll brand hi-lift :confused:
... and the quality of those, went down the tube years ago - when the original manufacturer got bought out/taken over.

I can imagine that bend happening - trying to lift that much vehicle and having it slip sideways or something.

Good post Mudderoy .. :cool:

... as it shows the silliness - of trying to lift from the body instead if just the wheel.

Another reason jackstands are necessary.
