Solid ones would be much heavier and much more expensive. I don't know why some people are complaining about them being hollow, they're plenty strong enough for their intended use. I gave these 4 stars instead of 5 because they really needed the handles reversed and stops removed to fit well and give good support to the yellow indoor MetalTech scaffolding. I attached outriggers with leveling jacks already in them. Another way was to put a single stack tower on its side, insert and secure the leveling jacks with bungee cords and stand the tower back up. I lifted one end of a tower without the floor in it and inserted both leveling jacks and lowered the tower end onto the leveling jacks to get them in the tower legs. I was grateful these were the hollow leg leveling jacks! It saves a few minutes if you don't mind walking maybe 90 pounds. If I wanted to move a single story tower I could remove the safety rail and floor and secure the leveling jacks with bungee cords and lift the entire tower from the center and walk it to a new location. It's 30 minutes to move the tower, but that's better than tipping over a two story tower. The scaffolding sets up to two towers in 20 minutes and breaks down in 10 minutes, including safety rails, single handed. If you need leveling jacks with stacked scaffolding, you should not be rolling or even tempting yourself to roll scaffolding around that kind of ground. I would also not use the leveling jacks that allow wheels under them if you are ever stacking scaffolding above 6 feet. There are just too many places not level around the outside walls of a house to not be using leveling jacks with scaffolding! I would not buy shorter leveling jacks because it was too easy to find myself using all of the safe height of the 24 inch leveling jacks. To manage this, I pinned the top outrigger hole at the first available hole of the scaffolding, and used a clamp to secure the bottom of the outrigger near its lower hole. I painted a bright orange band just below the removed stops to remind myself not to support the scaffolding higher than the removed stops.īecause the leveling jacks are 24 inches tall, you cannot pin both holes of the outriggers to the scaffolding. The stops also kept the leveling jacks from fitting easily inside the scaffolding legs, so I gained two benefits doing this. To make them work better, I spent an hour grinding off the stops and filing the same threads so I could remove and reverse the leveling handles to give better support to the scaffolding legs. I relied on these to keep my two story scaffolding tower level, even on the back concrete porch which was not exactly level.
