6.5 Kit Options - 20 tonne lift and 5 tonne pull rams, ram extension tubes

It will be noted that each set has two basic jacking units, ie, two pumps and two rams and the various fittings for each ram. In addition there are provided, one wedge spreader and one alligator spreader. This is because there will be a number of jobs where two jacks working simultaneously will have to be used, but relatively few occasions where two of the same type of spreader are required together.
