Identify this Floor air/axle jack

[Neura]

I came across this floor Air operated axle jack and have never seen one before. Anyone know who makes it and what the specs are on one? and do they work on newer cars? the guy that has it forsale has the saddle adapter for it as well. also what do you guys think it would be worth? Can lift to a max of 5 Feet.

I think it was made by Walker. Don't remember the ratings.

For a solid axle that looks awesome! I like it alot!
I don't know how it would do on anything else though.

Does anybody know how the saddle adapter fits on? I seriously think I like this design for solid axle lifting!

I have one similar but it looks like you're missing a few pieces...

how do you find the jack works on cars/vans? My truck would work fine on it, also how do you find moving it around to use it to jack up the front and back of a vehicle? I am thinking I may pick it up just not sure how much use I will get out of it, if it will only work on the trucks.

We had something similar in high school auto shop class (~47 yrs ago!). The teacher always referred to it as a "bay lift". I've never seen one since.

The brand of mine is BAY as the thread shows... It can pick up the side of a car fine... but be careful of where the jack contacts the underside... it will lift my son's car (compact)from the side until you think it might tip over... It is very cumbersome to move around and isn't very space saving, but gets great comments from visitors...
