Default TCS Demo Vid

I bought a new floor jack when the yellow one in the vid finally went bad after a twenty year service life. There's a pump rod seal leaking and I can't find a repair kit but before I let it go I used it for one more job. With front and rear wheels off the drive and locked in 4lo I had the wifey capture the test and I'm impressed with the result. I'm also glad that I didn't tear the front tire on the old jack as I was unaware it shifted. Maybe a better test would be to lift alternate wheels off the pavement but this torque transfer was fairly instant. I did warn you it is schlocky, didn't I ?

That was a great test of the TCS. Yeah, it would have been a shame to rip that tire! Did you ever try opposite tires by chance?
