Repair frame for car - bolted to wheel hubs to roll car through right angle for easy access to underside

摘要

The car is supported on jacks on one side and the wheels of one side are removed. A special frame is bolted to the wheel stubs and comprises a system of telescopic tubes which form a cradle to support the side of the car on the ground. The tubes reach under the car and up along one side. The jacks are lowered and the vehicle is then tipped onto its side for easy access to the underside. The whole tipping operation required only two operators and does not damage the vehicle, providing the fuel tank is drained and the battery removed. The two sections of the cradle are set at about 90 deg. to each other and have an adjustable handgrip for simple operation. The frame folds together for storage.
