    Max Jax Anchor Installation

    I read some bad things about their epoxy. make sure u get the right caulk gun. u can't use a regular caulk gun cause it can't shoot that thick. i buy extra epoxy cause i like to lube the anchor.

    plastic bag is so the epoxy doesn't drip all the way out. i think there are directions if i'm not mistaken on how much epoxy to use. IIRC it was like 1/3 the hole plus add some on the anchor. i did that to help lube the anchor down.

    Max Jax Anchor Installation

    i lifted my toyota sequoia on there without a problem. it was scary but wasn't a problem. i lifted my xc90 recently without a problem and my subaru outback. do yourself a favor and get the lube for the lift to help with the noise and buy the longer hose like i did.

    Max Jax Anchor Installation

    i used those epoxy anchors but i got my own epoxy. just clean the hole and let it cure. you should be good to go. if you are worried then move the lift a foot forward. not that big of a deal. i know it sounds scary. on my second install i had the drill get stuck with the bit stuck in the...

    Max Jax Anchor Installation

    Answered you on YouTube. I’ve installed mine twice. Hammer it all the way through. Hopefully u drilled it all the way down. Those anchors are toast. Punch them down and get chemical anchors. Easy fix if you drilled the hole all the way through. What u should have done was drill it all the way...

    chemical anchors are the way to go and throw away the ones that came with it.

    Call maxjax and see if the lift is a symmetrical one. If it is then don't worry about weight load. That is more important if you were dropping the engine out. I thought I read somewhere that maxjax was symmetrical. I lifted my trucks and cars. All of which don't have true 50/50 weight...

    Your post are either to close together or u don't have it centered on the lift. Your rear bars are not stretched out enough. Mine are lengthen out enough where it isn't that close. Now if u can't move the post then just roll the car up on 2x8 then then see if you can use extension to life the...

    MaxJax Installation Tips - WORTH READING

    Hopefully u drilled all the way through. Punch the anchor through the ground. Stuff tissue in the hole. Shoot epoxy in the hole then try again with new anchor. If sound again go get a chemical anchor. Thanks-Sid

    nigel, that ***** man. That honestly looks like a pain. i've done plenty of seals before. go buy yourself a piece of pvc pipe that is close to the same size diameter so when you tap it in, you'll get even force and the seal should go down evenly. I've always used a pick and razor blade to...

    not true. simply put the quick connect on the pump side. then when you want to move the post, disconnect the at the pump and roll the hose up and place on column. cheapest improvement can be made for less than $10 bucks that would save everyone all the headaches. Take the long hoses and get...
