Had to do the winter tire changeover the other day. Tweaked back at wheel #3. Figured I should look into a back saving system for the future and didn't wanna spend a bunch of bucks for a floor jack, impact drill, etc...
You tubed ghetto systems for car jacking using a regular cordless drill and attachments to car jack.
Ended up using this system and it worked awesome for my little Toyota Matrix.
Only thing is...the 20V cordless drill had a slight electrical burning smell after jacking the one wheel. I used a moderate speed, reversed it, and went up again at higher speed just for testing sake. High speed seemed easier on the drill.
Is this a sign that the drill is getting wrecked or just working hard?
