Re: November 2014 COTM **WINNER**
Looks like the Harbor Freight aluminum low profile jacks. I have one, it's low enough to fit under my IROC and it wasn't over priced. I think I spent $60 on it with a coupon. They have a few different low profile ones there with different weight ratings. If you plan on using it a lot or taking it with you places, get the aluminum ones. They are feather light compared to the other ones that weigh a ton!
