Product Information

Full details

The GoJak Automotive Vehicle Dolly 4520 is designed for mechanics, auto shops, and car enthusiasts who need to maneuver vehicles in tight spaces without needing the keys or running the engine.

FAQs

What is the weight capacity of a single GoJak 4520?

Each GoJak 4520 has a weight capacity of 1500 lbs, making a set of four capable of supporting up to 6000 lbs.

Can I use GoJaks on a vehicle with flat tires?

The GoJak is designed to lift tires off the ground. It may be challenging or impossible to use on a completely flat tire as there will be no inflation to grip.

How many GoJaks do I need to move a vehicle?

Two GoJaks allow for a 180-degree pivot. Four GoJaks are needed to place the vehicle on a 360-degree rolling platform for movement in any direction.

Do GoJaks require any maintenance?

Yes, periodic cleaning and lubrication of moving parts are recommended to ensure optimal performance and longevity.

Will GoJaks damage my tires?

No, the rollers are designed to grip the tire tread only, with no contact to the vehicle's frame or undercarriage, minimizing risk to vehicle components.

Are GoJaks suitable for outdoor use?

While they can be used outdoors, it is best to store them in a dry place to prevent rust and maintain their mechanical integrity.

Troubleshooting

Roller mechanism feels stiff or sticky

Inspect the rollers and pivot points for dirt, debris, or rust. Clean thoroughly and apply a suitable lubricant to moving parts.

Vehicle does not lift evenly

Ensure all GoJak units are placed correctly and are operating on a level surface. Check that the pedal is being depressed fully and consistently.

GoJak slips on the tire

Verify that the rollers are correctly positioned on the tire tread and not on the sidewall. Ensure the tire is free from excessive mud or grease.

Difficulty engaging the foot pedal

Check for any obstructions preventing the pedal's full range of motion. Ensure the GoJak is fully deployed around the tire before applying pressure.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Enables movement of vehicles without keys or engine power.
  • Safe for vehicle undercarriage as it only contacts the tire.
  • Purely mechanical, requiring no external power sources.
  • Facilitates easy maneuverability in extremely tight spaces.
  • Low center of gravity after lifting ensures stability.

Cons

  • Requires significant physical effort to operate due to mechanical design.
  • Lifting heavy vehicles can be strenuous.
  • May not be suitable for vehicles with extremely low ground clearance or specialized tires.
  • Requires purchasing multiple units for full vehicle mobility (two for pivoting, four for 360° rotation).
  • Storage of multiple units can take up space.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: To use the GoJak, position it in front of the tire you wish to lift. Place your foot on the pedal and press down. This action will open the rollers. Once positioned around the tire, continue pressing the pedal to squeeze the tire between the rollers until it is lifted clear of the ground. Repeat for other wheels as needed.

Compatibility: The GoJak 4520 is designed to accommodate most standard car and light truck tires. It is recommended to check tire width and diameter specifications if dealing with oversized or unusually shaped tires.

Care: Keep the GoJak clean by wiping it down with a damp cloth after use. Periodically inspect rollers and the pedal mechanism for debris or obstructions. Lubricate moving parts as per manufacturer recommendations to ensure smooth operation.
