Traxion 3-102 Topside Creeper Tool Tray

I was very impressed with the overall quality of this Creeper. Packaged well, nice welding, good finish and everything fit together nicely....no hassles to assemble. Very simple. If you're considering this Creeper, go to Traxions website and watch the "comparison video" of the Traxion Creeper to a "cheaper" Copy of their Creeper....The Copy failed at a about 4 hundred pounds load....The NXT Traxion went well over 1100 lbs!!!....That Sold me!!...Very Impressive demo and a great value for the money! Ive used it for about 2 weeks and love it. I weigh 250 lbs. and it holds me just fine. Even when most of my weight is way out on the Cushion, it stays rigid and steady. I should have bought this Creeper years ago....Highly recommended! Can't wait to try it out!

Nice top creeper, very sturdy, I recommend purchasing the tray from Traxion as well. Folds Nicely to store away. Serves me well does great for my 2020 Ram 2500.

Ive neen debating purchasing one for a while now. I recently had to reseal the entire valley on a 7.3 powerstroke. This is a very time consuming job spent entirely over the engine. It wasnt hard to talk myself into buying this. The quality is great. It is very easy to set up, and folds away nicely for storage. When locked it is very sturdy and the locking casters hold in place very well. I spent a large chunk of the day on this and wonder what I would have done without it. I keep this in my service truck now and have used it multiple time in the field for repairing diesel trucks. At first I though itd be too much to set up to be worthwhile, but I find myself pulling it out more often. What a treat to use. Worth every cent.

Looks like a good product. Assembled but not used yet. The holes to attach the top frame for the pad did not line up, had to drill 4 more holes and used 4 bolts instead of the spring loaded pins. Holes not punched in correct location when manufactured.

For the price this creeper is worth every bit for its functionality, what you can do with it and the stress it takes off your body. After reading countless reviews of others claiming packaging issues leaving scratches on the metal, rips/tears in the cushion. My only concern was the condition of the cushion, which was immaculate. If one is worried about scratches, this creeper is no different than any other tool in the cabinet. Assembly Is easy, I did have an alignment issue with the spring loaded pins for the topside hinge. A drill bit took care of this very minimal misalignment. I added the extra tray and left the pouch on the front for versatility storage. The Styrofoam is a cheap and lousy protection for vehicles, therefore I added some carpet I also use in my tool boxes. I will add more to the uprights aswell. It's sturdy, folds down for storage. The pads is large and comfortable for the average size person. The pins lock in place nicely. Do your back a solid and treat yourself

I read many of the three-star and less reviews so I was a bit tentative...but, for the price I find it a great value. I had no trouble at all with the assembly instructions. If you have the skills to need one of these, you should have no trouble putting it together. The most tedious part was cutting the shipping zip-ties because it was really bundled up. I had no damage to the box or any dings or scratches. The exterior box seems pretty fragile but handled with care, it suffices. That said, the way I use things, it will get scratched eventually so I don't worry about those things...others may be more concerned. Anyway, mine came just fine. I also bought the optional tool tray which looks handy but it does require an extra two inches of height to clear the radiator since it mounts underneath the stomach pad. I have a short reach so that two inches was noticeable. If you get the optional tray, I recommend not installing the cloth pouch; they interfere with each other. I also saw some comments about the folding function not being helpful. I found that it folds very flat. So far, only used it once but it was a nice change from balancing on my knees and reaching back by the engine firewall. Wish I had bought one years ago.

Gave it one star for review visibility. If you’re buying this, you’re a handy person. Even so, the assembly instructions are ABSOLUTE DOG WATER CLOWN INSTRUCTIONS. Truly terrible instructions. I cannot believe someone thought they would be useful. Other than that, I very much look forward to using this creeper and it feels sturdy and well built. All the holes lined up and I’m pleased. A decent amount of the powder coat is scraped off from the abysmal packaging, but I expected that from the other reviews.

UPDATE: I fixed the problem with the base, and the rest of the assembly went well. Updated to 3 stars from 2. Plently of height adjustability, and seems sturdy enough in use. One other minor issue I had was the non-skid tread on the steps was peeling off (2 had completely fallen off before I even unpacked it). I wiped the finish on the steps really well with acetone and then reapplied the tread; so far it seems to be adhering much better. ------------------original review------------------ I was excited to get this to aid in working on my truck; standing on a platform and having to reach for things in the engine compartment is getting to be a pain in the back. Unfortunaley, after completing the first couple of steps during assembly I realized the based was crooked and the wheels won't all touch the floor. I moved it around to make sure it wasn't just a low spot, but the same wheel remained off the ground. The problem is the c-channels that hold the beams for the wheels weren't welded level; it's hard to see until the beams are bolted on. Traxion was responsive (the reason I give this 2 stars instead of just 1) and sent me a new center beam that indicates it was inspected, but unfortunately this one is just like the original. Based on them being out of line by about the same amount I can only conclude that there is a jig used during assembly that needs to be realigned. I emailed them informing them of this, and told them I'll just fix this myself. I'm fortunate to have a welder, so will just cut one side off and get it put on correctly. I may update this review once I have this fully assembled and can actually use it.

very happy with it so far well build

Good service and a very solid and good product.

More suitable for a taller person. Hard on the neck if used for a long period of time.easy to use well made but a little pricey.

It is weak and relies on the vehicle to support the weight, it ruined so many parts on trucks that I couldn’t afford to keep using it. I weigh half of its rated capacity and it would flex so much. Even trying to set it higher than needed it was so flimsy I didn’t feel safe using it. It really is not worth it.

Came with missing screws, not impressed it was a christmas present and my son could not use it that day
