Bert Transmissions Jack

Bert Transmissions Air Jacks: Pit-Ready Lifting for Serious Racers

Bert Transmissions has been a cornerstone of the circle track racing world since 1985, building racing jacks and drivetrain components trusted by competitors at every level of the sport. While the brand's name is synonymous with high-performance transmissions, Bert's aluminum air jacks have become just as indispensable in the pit lane and race shop — earning a reputation for speed, safety, and lightweight durability that few competitors can match.

The Bert AJ-1000 Aluminum Air Jack

The flagship of Bert's jack lineup is the AJ-1000 Aluminum Bumper Jack, a purpose-built racing jack that reflects the same engineering philosophy behind every Bert product: reduce weight, increase reliability, and simplify the job. Rated for 2,500 pounds, this aluminum bumper jack has become a go-to solution in the East Coast Modified, IMCA, UMP Modified, Legend Car, and various open-wheel racing categories — and at just 60 pounds, it is constructed with 95% aluminum to make it incredibly easy to handle during pit stops and maintenance tasks.

The Bert Air Jack can quickly lift vehicles to a height of 36 inches, allowing for rapid adjustments and repairs, and it features a robust safety lock mechanism ensuring secure operation while lifting. That combination of speed and safety is exactly what pit crews and race shop technicians demand when every second counts.

Optional Airline Kit for a Cleaner Pit Setup

For added convenience, an airline kit can be installed in the vehicle, enabling a single connection to an air pressure source — keeping the work area clear of hoses, jack stands, or floor jacks and streamlining the maintenance process. This makes the Bert air jack an especially appealing choice for teams that need to work efficiently in tight infield spaces.

Purpose-Built Variants for Dirt Modified Racing

Bert doesn't take a one-size-fits-all approach to its jack lineup. Dedicated front and rear air jack variants are available specifically for dirt modified racing applications, with the front dirt modified air jack and the rear dirt modified air jack each designed with appropriate bumper assemblies to suit the unique lifting geometry of these cars. This level of specialization means racers can find the right jack for their exact class and chassis setup without resorting to workarounds or universal adapters.

Trusted Across Racing Classes

A Bert Air Jack is a reliable tool for both pit crews and garage work — rated for 2,500 lbs and commonly used in Modified, IMCA, and other open-wheel race cars, with lightweight construction making them easy to transport and ideal for both regular maintenance and quick pit stops. Whether you're wrenching in the shop between race nights or making adjustments in a crowded pit lane, the Bert air jack is a tool that earns its place on every race team's must-have list.
