Anyone have any experience with these. I can get a used manually operated one for a good price.

Thoughts??

Thanks Frank

Yep, should be previous threads on MC Lifts including Pitbull as well as others. J&S and Pitbull both popular. One of them has a turntable option.

My pitbull works great. Absolutely no problems. Mine has capability to be ran off of a compressor or manually. I usually just use the foot pump instead of firing up the compressor.

There is a YouTube video on a comparison of the J&S, Pitbull, and another brand (I think Harbor Freight).  J&S was selected as the best.  Video link attached.

Love my pit bull, I have the compressor model and the turntable. For me the turntable is
Overrated, seems like the jack assembly and handle gets in the turntables way.

I have had mine since 2008.  Replaced the bottle 1 time and the springs a few times.  If you can get it for a good price, I would buy it.

I have the Pitbull with the turn-table. I also over the years have owned a J&S. I really do not see where one is better than the other but the turntable is the key factor on why I kept it and got rid of the J&S. And the some will say the J&S is more stable, maybe but the Pitbull   when you bolt on the turn-table becomes very rigid.

i have the j&s, but i really don't think you can go wrong with either.  when i got mine, i had never heard of pitbull, and i was going to be going by the j&s factory in wisconsin, so i figured i would pick one up and save the almost $100 on shipping.  i've made some bad purchases in my lifetime, but i do not consider this as one of them.  as i suspect you will after picking up the pitbull....
