I'm looking to buy the above and I am wondering what tonnage do I go for?

seen a 2tonne set on eBay for cheap... is that enough?

cheers

I've just bought a 2tone Arcam low lift trolly jack from Costco for about £100. Its aluminum so very light weight.Very good I have to say

Amazing bit of kit mate for the money. It even has a rubber saddle pad to boot! I've been using it to change the disc's and pads on my T-180. Clark do a similar one for around £89.99 from Toolmart I think

I would say that a 2 ton jack and axle stands are an ideal choice. If a car weights around the ton or slightly more then to have extra lifting capacity is worth having both for safety and longevity of the lifting item.

When I was in the fire brigade we always over compensated so as to be safe
