Hi All,
I am looking at purchasing a 'lift mate' which is a two hooked device that attaches to the spokes of your rim and enables the high lift jack to lift directly from the wheel. I have five spoked alloy rims (pretty standard pajero) and have some concerns about lifting from alloy rather than steel. My thoughts are that the wheel spokes were never designed to withstand force in that sideways direction.
Has anyone used these on alloy rims, or does anyone have any advice. (have searched many websites with no real luck)
Thanks
Davidman
