what type of jack are people useing to
carry around? if you happen to get a puncher.
as i do not want to carry a trolly jack
as it is to big...

I'd have thought the only jack you could collapse low enough to get under the chassis (apart from a trolley jack) would be a scissor jack as supplied with your common or garden tin top.
Don't most people just carry a can of puncture sealant (saves having a heavy spare wheel on the back) and a breakdown membership card for emergencies?

I can't get my trolley jack under the car with the four tyres fully inflated. I need to lever it up with the jack handle to get the jack under. Perish the thought if I picked up a puncture.

not really car is light enough to lift and slide jack under front x member and like wise at rear under diff-these jacks dont leave you with bare bone knuckles-but if your car is to heavy.............?
