DIY Car Jack, Car lift

[@user-zx7tg4ph5r]

Excellent video! Well done! I like the gutter idea for the rollers as I too have a gravel work area. The only difference in my project will be to remove the gear boxes and utilize a central "Y" design for a single ACME rod with the drive mechanism from the front or rear of the vehicle instead of the side where yours is positioned and I will be using this for my Smart For Two

The unf screws wouldn’t work for long anyway, they are not designed to screw/unscrew often without wear since they have non square (pointed, sharp) thread. The acme rod has a square thread and doesn’t wear when the acme nut is moving on it.

[@jarikinnunen1718]

I made, same swing type lifter for the scooter, few years ago. It locate under of the center stand, which is locked its lower position by bar. I rocking scooter side to side by hand and when nearest leg is up, I turn wooden block under it by leg and so on, few times. When both side is level, scooter swing like your car, its one end up to repair. It`s slow to use and little bit risky to use, but enough usable to stay in my garage. It`s only lifter which I can take on the scooter, for to do lift in other place. When I have to remove the engine, the center stand goes with it. So I did, two two-legged rope hoists. I attached two ropes to the winch spool and two pulleys to extend the positions of the ropes, to ensure a stable lift. It lifts optionally in three places: the front, mittle or rear of the scooter. When it lifted at the mittle, it swing. Its two leg frames look like a guillotine and the vinch is on top of it. The frame design is space saver. Other 3-rope lifter was attached to the seiling and use one vinch. It was too stationary to use for me. I made some experiment for rocking table (legs of two pair turned freely down when other end lifted by muscles) to lift scooter, but it did`n got air under its wings...

[@blizteredthumbs7911]

The pivot lol that's fucking genius. But how do you work out the balance? I actually hate jacking up my car. I've a 3.5 tonne jack, pads and all. Yet because you're one corner at a time I always feel it's just unhealthy pressure on the chassis. I'm curious how to make a drive over level lifter for at least either end. Ideally it would be all 4 corners but I'll either get a second jack or come up with something. But I'd at least like to be able to jack the front or rear level on both sides. I've been there too many times where the ground isn't smooth so the jack doesn't rise and pull the car away from the axle stand. I picture driving the front or rear wheels on and then gears rising or pumping jacks so they're balanced.

[@VinyB57]

Each car has it s own position with the jack and once you found it, since the gravity center is right on top in the "flat" position, ince you pivot it ine side it slips to this side...quite simple

Can you please tell me what issues did you have with the first design? Only screw jamming or something more? I have an idea how to build a parallelogram lift for my own use. Russians use volga 24 jack for the drive and its great but who on earth would ever buy a volga other then in USSR. 😀

[@VinyB57]

For the first design, yes one of the major issue was the jamming screw, but also, having only a 2:1 reduction with sprockets and chains was to hard on the HP of my 1/2'' chuck drill (Dewalt). Now it's much better with the worm gearbox 5:1 ratio and the '''driving shaft'' between both gearboxes, no more chains!

[@mmikapn]

I have just realised that i have 1kw motor with 20:1 ratio gearbox and a sprocket for 3/8 chain already on it. I think it is marked 10b-1 that should be more than enough to power my lift. I'll try to upload a video of a finished build. When i finish it. 🤣

[@mmikapn]

The chain, as I plan, will be placed instead of a screw in Your design. The force distribution is the same, of course diferent design, similar to quick jack models. I practically plan to use your design to lift one side of the parallelogram. I need free floor between two sides of the lift. It will be secured with a support bar on both sides and i trust my welds since i am a certified welder.

@@manofsan Yes, my tip here is to weld a rachet box on the lift, one that you have in extra and use the squarre as an adaptor. Use a box that will fit your impact (don't use a impact 😅) and you can modify a rachet extention to fit your drill, or buy a squarre to hexagonal (for small impact drill) and chuk it in your big drill.

[@lyndonp6296]

What problems did you have with the chain and sprocket system ??

[@VinyB57]

Hi Lyndon, 2 things, first: it was too hard for the drill, the sprocket reduction of 1:2 was not enough, the drill was smoking after only few seconds, secondo, it felt weak. The shafts were bending has the chain was pulling on the sprockects from both sides. Just a bad design, but maybe with bigger shafts (at leats ø1'') and good reduction (at least 1:5) that could work. But thing how big the sprocket will need to be to get the reduction, that's why I went with the worm gearboxes.

Can you please tell us the specs of suitable worm gear for this application?

[@VinyB57]

Yes sure! I used a 5:1 worm gear. The worm gears need to have pretty straight theeth so it will ''lock'' in place the screw. If you can easely turn the output shaft of the gearbox, you'll know that the gears have to much angle. If you combine the angle of the screw with the gears angles, that will keep the jack ',safely'' in position to put your jack stand underneath the car. I'm hopping that will help you!

Hi Zach, yes, the spec for the gearboxes are: ratio: 5:1, RPM 1750, input HP:1.248, output HP:1.158, torque:209lbf*in. And they held on very well for the past years.

No PDF in the Folder apparently

[@VinyB57]

I checked it, and it's still there. But I know that a lot of the times, nothing will show when you open the PDF. It's a problem with the 3D PDF size, it's to large.

@@VinyB57 I hope that this winter I can build my low lift using aluminum or magnesium to keep it light and corrosion free. Maybe even stainless steel. Not sure right now. But will make a low, drive over and us type. Keep up the great work too. VF

Humm...aluminium..magnesium... I d'ont know? As long as you don't need to race or fly the thing, the weight is not that important...I think! I really appreciate steel, in his strengh, his availability and it's low cost! But, if you're planning on making one in alu, please send some pics! Good day to you too!

[@drewrinker2071]

I want to make this myself and went to your store for the plans but couldn't find them. I really like this idea especially paired with the jack that you made to make it safer

[@VinyB57]

@@drewrinker2071 Ah ok! First I'm not selling the plans, for safety purposes and second, the price will greatly depend on the price of the gearboxes, I paid mine 100$ for used one but I was very lucky to find them. The rest is acme rods (around 50$) and pieces of steel laying around in the shop. So to me it was about 200$

[@drewrinker2071]

@@VinyB57the ok thanks. And yes I agree the design itself does not seem that safe but with the additional jack stands that you're using I think that would very much make it safer. My work thows gearboxes out all the time. So it's just mostly the metal

[@stevewuertz3598]

Thought I'd check back to see if the PDF issue has been resolved. It has not. This might be a reason you are stuck at 1800 subscribers instead of building a viable online business. Its a pity cause its a great build but seems to be a lot of trouble for all involved

[@VinyB57]

Steve, it's a PDF, get over it! For some it works, for other it doesn't. I'm doing youtube videos for fun, to share my projects and inspire people to get in their shop and build something! I increase my average of subscription every single month...so stuck...don't think so, you should do your math. So if you have something contructive to comment about, please be my guest and if you give me your email adress, it will be my pleasure to send you personally the PDF and move on....🤦‍♂️

Does anybody know where to find the beam pads?

[@VinyB57]

hi Tim, these are 1/4'' or 6mm rubber pads that I had laying around in my shop. The sharpness of the bottom joint from the cars (where the lift is pushing up againts the car) are now destroying them slowly...as long as you have something to prevent paint removing / and the car from slidding down the lift..😅

This is reminiscent of how thugs steal wheels off cars in American cities. They place milk crates under the rockers in the middle of the car, then tilt off of each axle to get the raised wheels. Then they leave the front bumper on the ground, with all of the weight of the car on it...
