Mine gets used for reinflatting debeaded tires (3 so far on RubyDoo), getting others unstuck, changing tires.

the hi-lift is on my list of things to order once my wheels come in.

I would love to see examples or pictures of the hi lift being used as a winch, or even as JKKAT described to repair a tire with a blown bead.

Seems like a must have tool.

This is one of the better sites I found regarding the hi-lift.

wwwDOT4x4now.com/bb0997.htm

Also, great vids at you-tube. Just put "hi-lift" in the search box. There are a bunch by the company themselves (they have hi-lift in bottom corner) as well as people using it as a winch etc.

Edit - They have this for sale for 29.99 harborfreight.com/cpi/ctaf/displayitem.taf?Itemnumber=6530
