Wire Tracers
Congratulations on your very nice snapon torque wrenches but if you
use a 2 1/2 floor jack to hold up your coach you probably wont't be
around very long to use them
There is a thing called weight rating for lifting devices and by your
mention of s 2 1/2 ton floor jack and your signature of a 1985 pt 40.
The best 2 12 floor jack in the world is no match for a PT under any
condiitions
I Believe that the 2 do not come even close to matching or even making
an adequate safety stand
I would heartily suggest that you invest in a cheap offshore version
of a floor jack of the proper rating and safety stands for what you
are lifting to protect your life and maybe the well being of others
