Maybe the best Hi-Lift accessory ever
 
Bogert has come up with an ingeniously simple solution to the Hi-Lift stability problem.

Two wires, attached to a wide base plate, go up on either side of the jack and attach near the top -- and prevent the Jack from tipping sideways.
The base plate would work on sand, etc'.

I like it. Looking at the price though, so do they.

very cool.... not $110 cool... that has to be like a 800% markup at least.

Very good idea, but I'll save the $110 and just be safe if I ever have to use it

That is actually pretty cool.

Thanks for the share.

The Bogert prevents the Hi-Lift from falling sideways (one of the 2 major issues with Hi-Lift), this doesn't.

Yeah... It just took decades until someone thought of it...

Good idea but looks like something you can make for about 10 bucks.
