Following up-I did indeed purchase the Challenger rolling bridge jack. Am
very happy with it so far. Happy to answer questions.

Subject: [Shop-talk] Rolling bridge jacks
Hi,
I hope y'all had a nice Thanksgiving.
I have been doing research on rolling bridge jacks over the past couple of
months. My 4-post lift is a ~20-year-old Rotary model, from their first
foray into the "prosumer" space (blue paint) and before the same item was
spun off as part of the separate Revolution line (black paint). It has a
7000 lbs. capacity.
As far as I can tell, Rotary never offered a rolling bridge jack for this
line. I have looked at all that they do offer (which is quite a few choices,
since they bought companies like Forward and merged their products in) but
for various reasons I wasn't happy with the choices. (I can go into detail
for anyone who cares.)
I have pretty much settled on the Challenger RJ3.5 - 3500 lbs. capacity,
manual pump (no air assist). I would be interested in hearing from anyone
who has experience with this model - or with a different Challenger rolling
bridge jack. Or a different manufacturer altogether.
Happy Holidays,
--Kent
