Lifts, Jacks & Hoists

From recovering a bogged 4x4 on a remote track to pulling an engine in the home garage, lifting and hauling heavy loads safely calls for the right gear. Our Lifts, Jacks and Hoists collection brings together electric winches, hydraulic engine cranes, engine stands, farm jacks, air jacks and motorcycle lifts for Australian four-wheel drivers, mechanics, farmers and workshop owners. Whether you are kitting out a touring rig, setting up a shed or tackling a driveway rebuild, this range covers the heavy lifting so you can work smarter and safer.

Electric Winches for Recovery and Lifting

Winching is the backbone of serious 4WD recovery, and the range spans Giantz, X-BULL and ZESUPER electric winches from a compact 3000lbs up to a hefty 14500lbs. Most run on 12V with a wireless remote, and you can choose steel cable for rugged durability or synthetic rope, which is lighter, floats and stores less energy under load. Many kits include a mounting plate to suit a bull bar or trailer. Alongside vehicle winches, the Giantz electric hoist winches from 300/600kg to 500/1000kg, with 18m and 20m cables and chain lifting attachments, are built for overhead lifting of engines, motors and materials in the shed.

Engine Cranes, Hoists and Stands

Pulling and rebuilding an engine is far safer with purpose-built workshop gear. The collection includes 2-tonne foldable hydraulic engine cranes, heavy-duty folding engine stands rated from 450kg to 900kg, and an engine leveller and balancer rated to 907kg that lets you angle a block precisely into the bay. Folding designs pack away against a wall when the job is done. For utes, trucks and mobile mechanics, 12V swivel hydraulic cranes rated around 800kg to 900kg give 360 degree pick-up and placement without a second set of hands.

Jacks for Every Job

Beyond the standard trolley jack, this range tackles the tough recovery and servicing tasks. The X-BULL Hi-Lift style farm jack is a touring essential for lifting a 4x4 wheel clear on uneven ground, changing tyres and working with recovery tracks. Multi-layer air bag exhaust jacks rated to 5 tonne inflate from the exhaust or a compressor to raise a vehicle on soft sand, mud or snow where a conventional jack sinks. In the workshop, a 500kg transmission and gearbox jack adapter makes dropping a gearbox manageable, while tall under-car axle support stands hold a raised vehicle securely for underbody work.

Motorcycle and ATV Lifting

Riders are well catered for with T-REX front and rear paddock stands for chain, tyre and general maintenance, plus heavy-duty hydraulic motorcycle lift tables and scissor lift jacks rated to around 500kg. Low-profile motorcycle scissor stands and ATV jacks raise a bike or quad to a comfortable working height, making servicing, cleaning and repairs far easier on your back in the home shed or professional bike workshop.

Ratings, Safety and Choosing the Right Tool

Always match the rated capacity to the weight you are lifting and add a sensible safety margin. Never work under a load held only by a hydraulic jack or winch, and support the vehicle on rated axle stands before you go underneath. Check the 12V wiring, battery condition and duty cycle before running a winch or electric hoist hard, and inspect cables, ropes, hooks, hydraulic seals and welds regularly for wear. Choosing the right combination of winch, jack and stand keeps you safe on the track and in the workshop.
