wheres the cheapest place I can get a floor jack? not the small ones like at ADvance or AZ......

 

SEARS has sales on there 3 1/2 ton ones for around $100.00
I got a 3 ton one with a set of jack stands for $50.00

 

I bought a 3 ton jack that came with two jackstands for $100 Canadian at Costco.

 

You know for the money, Sears has the low design jack for $250. It seems like a lot but for a low profile 3 ton jack, that's pretty good. Also considering that most floor jacks won't go under an fbody without a little help. Just my $0.02 though.

 

Actually, i bought mine at advance(love my discount). its a 3ton speedy lift(one stroke to car) was about $65 before my discount.

 

Right now Sears has their "professional" 3 1/2 ton with stands and a creeper on sale for like $120.

 

I went and looked at the ones at ADvance but they just looked like a bigger version of the 2 1/2 ton jacks. Those little jacks arent good for anything except maybe a compact car. I want a real floor jack, I will I could find one of those deals for $50 bucks at Sears for the 3 ton and jack stands....I cant afford $100 for a jack. Does Sams or Costco sell them? I looked on their website but couldnt find them and Ebay, Im not paying $50 bucks shipping.

thanks guys

 

Sears has a 3 ton SUV jack for $49.00 with a 6 in. to 20 in. lift.
Its extra long too, 2 pumps and its all the way up.

I saw the Craftsman Jack and it wasn't as impressive as the $175 3.5 Jack at NAPA, 22" lift When your lifting your car, you want some insurance.

I have a couple questions. The jack we have now is this dinky little thing, my dad said he got it for one of our other cars that sits low. I was at this shop awhile back that had a huge jack, it was like 3 or 3 1/2, I don't exactly remember, but it fit under my friend's civic that was lowered, and I mean ~LOW~. It didn't fit, but he pulled the cup thing off the end, and it just barely slipped right under and fit. I want one of these for my car, since my car will never be as low as this civic was. Is this the "low profile" ones you guys are talking about? It also had this other pedal on the side that raised the jack, but it did it like way faster then using the long handle. Does harbor frieght sell any good ones?

I probably sound like an idot... lol. Can anyone help me out? I have like 150$ burnin a hole in my pocket. Can I get anything similar to that with this much money?

 

is that jack just an oversized jack like the little ones they sell at Advance? You know the kind that you have to pull the handle out and turn the valve to release the air....Im want one that all you have to do is turn the handle...I real mans jack.......a friend of mine says that you can get those kinds for around $50.00 but you just have to look around...

Im going to the Auto Expo at the Lowes Motor Speedway on the 4th of April...I may just look there and see what kind of deal I can get...

 

heres the SUV $49.00 jack.....

 

the kind that you are talking aboout, with the 5 foot metal handle that you only have to twist to let down? they do sell those at advance. i sold one last night actually, 2&1/2 ton for $60 i believe. ask the people behind the counter and hope they arent complete idiots(sometimes hard to find )

 

got mine at SAM's for $60. its a real nice michelin brand, powder coated blue. one pump to car. think its a 3 1/2 ton also. low profile and still barely fits far enough under car.

 

I want one of these. At 3.5" minimum height, it should get underneath that cross member.

you got a picture of it? Does it look like the one above? I hope not...the one above is just an oversized crappy jack...

 

Keep in mind a jack probly aint the best thing to cheap out on.

 

i saw the one(michelin) at sams this past weekend, its a very nice jack. it was 54.95 here, and i plan on getting it when i get paid.

 

Yep!,,thats me! Thats what ive been looking for. You cant beat the price and quality.





Lifting Range: Lifts 5 1/2" - 22" High
Univeral Joint: Ensures smooth release valve operation
ANSI Superior Quality
Magnetic Tool Tray: Ideal for keeping small parts or hardwares
Saddle Pad: Prevents chassis lift point from scratching while lifting
Just one pump brings the saddle all the way up to the chassis

 

I havent been there to look at it yet, but since you have, how long was the handle? was it long? I hope so.....

 

yep, its plenty long enough. prob 36 inches or so

 

So we can lift our cars without the hassle of not being able to get a good pump on the jack? Thats the problem with the little jacks, with the handle under the car theres not enough room to jack the pump up but with a regular car jack and the handle sticking out from under the car the pumps are easier.

How do you release the air? from the handle or a valve?

 

I went and looked at the jack from SAMS.....that is one fine piece of steel....I would almost hate to buy it and get it all scuffed up...for the price there is no way it can be beat..that jack is top quality. The handle is 55in long. It will be in my garage soon. thanks for the heads up guys on a jack.

 

damn, i didnt realize the handle was that long. but you CANNOT find a better jack for the price. im waiting till next payday

 

also one pump on this bad bay will damn near pick your wheels up, it lifts real high on the first pump.
