That looks like a must for someone with a dodgy old back-like me for instance. Working on brakes is a real pain but I reckon that would make it a doddle and the money saved on Radox would soon pay for it! :happy2:

Does it allow you to lock it into position after you tilt it?

Yes it does Snoopy a bit like an axle stand pin system.

Only problem I can see is if you have a lowered car I don't think that will fit under?  I only have 1/4" of clearing if that between the pad on a low entry trolley jack and the chassis/side skirt.
