TRAC Tire Jack

What is the TRAC Tire Jack used for?

The TRAC Tire Jack is a wheel-handling tool for mounting and demounting heavy wheel assemblies at the vehicle hub. It slides under the tire and wheel so the assembly can be rolled into place instead of lifted by hand.

What is the TRAC Tire Jack compatible with?

The TRAC Tire Jack is built for heavy tire-and-wheel assemblies being removed from or installed onto a hub. It also accepts the TRAC Roller Plate accessory when the job calls for easier wheel-hole to stud alignment.

When should you use the roller plate with the TRAC Tire Jack?

Use the roller plate when easier alignment of the wheel holes to the hub studs would help the job move faster. It is a strong fit for all-terrain tread patterns because the wheel can be spun while it sits on the tool; mud-terrain or more aggressive treads are better handled with the jack alone since the tread can catch in the rollers.

How does the TRAC Tire Jack reduce technician strain?

The TRAC Tire Jack reduces strain by using leverage and a steel base roller to support the assembly and guide it into position with less physical effort. That cuts down on manual lifting and positioning during hub work. For a closer look at that workflow, see TRAC Tire Jack and New Roller Plate.

Is the TRAC Tire Jack easy to handle and store in the shop?

Its compact size helps keep it easy to move and store between jobs. The listed specifications are 8 lbs and 18.5 in. x 6.5 in. x 3 in., with heavy-duty welded steel construction for durability.
