Gaither’s newest tool is simple in design and drastically helps technicians when mounting and demounting heavy wheel assemblies to and from a vehicle’s hub. The TRAC Tire Jack simply slides under the tire and wheel and allows the technician to roll the wheel into place. Through the use of leverage, the TRAC Tire Jack saves users time and their backs. Use the Jack and not your back!

I was planning on keeping this in my car but the weight is too much amost 10lbs.Should have been made of 6061 aluminum.Now I just keep it in my garage. I can’t see anybody telling their wife to use this in emergency due to the weight. A qualified engineer should have been consulted first.

Amazing for something so simple

Used it a couple times on some large offroad truck tires that weigh 99 lbs. I was skeptical because the videos make it look so easy. Works as advertised. A bit expensive for a simple piece of bent painted metal but if it saves your back and your body its worth it.

I anticipate this product will work great for my vehicles: 1 import car and 2 TWD trucks. I also purchased the roller plate to facilitate rotating the tire during re installation. Also, the company tech support was great in that they immediately replied to a question I had regarding this product.

I change tires/wheels from summer to winter twice a year. This makes getting tires in place much easier.

What a great idea.So simple yet so functional.Anyone with a back problem will love this product.A 10 year old child could easily remove a 50 LB tire with little effort. Changing a flat tire becomes so simple cannot believe no one came up with this idea sooner.

I have used this for several winter tire changeovers now. I think that it is a really well-built product. I believe that the optional attachment rollers need some updates to the design at this point to be an even better product. The metal rollers need to be slightly larger and the base of the unit needs to be a bit wider to accommodate wider tires. It works well, just needs some extra fiddling. I’m happy with it regardless

Very well made. A real saver for these heavy tires and wheels, Can’t go wrong with a well made tool.

This is a simple solution to raising your tires up to get them in position on the studs in order to start the lug nuts. Saves your back with the larger heavier wheels used on SUVs and Trucks these days.
