Re: Best floor jacks
Like Art, we also used a Harbor Freight jack. The better ones, but still affordable. But in addition to lift capacity, as cad said, you need to pay attention to lift height.
We got a heavy rubber mat, actually a couple to put over a wide board in the grass so the jack didn't sink into the dirt/mud/grass .... you know... all of the stuff you deal with in the stock pits. David The New Hemi Guy |

Re: Best floor jacks
I am not going to start a HF thread, but I use the blue/silver lightweight aluminum jack at the track and for Cal-Trac adjustments. It works very well, but the lightweight model's lift height is not as much as the 2+ ton model.
I believe the lightweight Jegs jack is the same mfr as the HF model. Last edited by cad; 02-05-2013 at 09:52 PM. |
