Hey everyone!

Looking for a recommendation on a solid jack. I have that basic as hell kit with two jacks stands from Autozone etc. and it's a pain not being able to jack up front the front subframe. Any reasonable low profile / longer options you all are using and happy with?

I have harbor freights Daytona low profile and the newer Daytona aluminum 1.5 ton racing jack. I carry my Jacks from house to driveway so when I don't need the full size, that racing jack only weighs 30 lbs vs the low pro which is like 80 lbs or some shit.

I also use them both when I need to get the honda on stands cause that car is a pain in the ass.

Well nice! Really appreciate it. Not only is there a Harbor Freight close by, but that 1.5 ton racing jack looks just about perfect for my blend of needs. Have to be a little more mobile with all of my tools than I'd like hahaa!

They have a 2 ton as well. May have slightly more reach but still lightweight

don't forget a solid wood block to help distribute the load so you don't bend any jack points under the car

Get a low profile jack as it will serve you well on just about everything* Vs Normal height ones. Ask me how i know now with a lowered FiST.
