How to choose a jack for Chevrolet Niva
When buying a jack for a car, there are two main factors to consider - the load capacity and the pickup height of the tool. They must match the weight and ground clearance of the vehicle.
Load capacity. The mass of the Chevrolet Niva is 1860 kg. That is, the lifting capacity of the jack should be at least 2 tons. It is possible and more - many owners prefer to stop at 3-4 tons, so that the jack will surely cope.
Pickup height. The clearance of the Chevrolet Niva is 200 mm, but this is an indicator of the lowest place in the car. In practice, car owners calmly slip a jack under it with a pickup height of about 230 mm. But you shouldn't take more.
lifting height shows how much the car will rise from the fulcrum. In order to throw a spare tire, a large take-off is not required. But in order to look under the car itself, the lifting height must be at least half a meter.
Which device type better to choose? When working with mechanical jacks, you will have to apply more force than with hydraulic ones. But these models are cheaper.
We compiled our rating based on the feedback from car owners and the technical characteristics of the tools. It included only those models that were tested on the Chevy Niva.

Two-rod jack with a lifting capacity of 4 tons and a stroke of 245 mm. With a lift height of 229 mm and a lift height of 535 mm, this model makes it easy and convenient to work with the Niva Chevrolet SUV. Hydraulics allows you to easily lift the car, while the jack does not bend and securely holds the car. You can buy a rubber support to the kit in order to put it in the recesses of the support points on the car body. This allows you to take better care of your car.
