Looking for a floor jack, any recommendations? Prob need a lower profile jack.

Or should I just get any jack from can tire?

 

Harbor freight

 

costco for sure. $80-90 dont remember, low profire. Great jack BEST FOR ITS MONEY

 

I got a cheap electric jack from canadian tire.
I like it.

 

If I remember correctly Canadian Tire carries an aluminum Michelin Jack that goes on sale from time to time. Looks like a good unit and you know how Canadian Tire sale prices go..usually 40-60% off.

For cheap you should check out Princess Auto.

 

+1 - I think I got it on sale for $75ish...maybe less.

 

If you're ever in the states swing by sears or an auto store. I picked up a great low pro jack for about 50$.

 

yea, it's on sale now actually. Gonna check out Costco and Can Tire tonight, thanks guys.

 

This is the best low profile jack hands down. It's heavy and it's expensive, but it is my favorite tool in the garage.

Most of the CT ones aren't low enough it seems. My buddy bought one from Costco and it was cheap and low. Sorry I can't recall the brand but they won't have stacks of selection.

 

I had the 'aluminum racing jack' from CT for about 2 years before it broke. First a piece on the handle and then a wheel broke. I used it quite a bit though.

 

lol at guy from Florida. **** harbor freight.

I have two of these, pick em up at TSC store.



My car still needs wood to get it under but it fits under 80% of the cars I work on.

 

^^ That one looks pretty good.. I got one on sale at Crappy Tire and I like it. Similar to the one pictured above.

 

checked out costco, it's similar to the one you listed 4DGS. It's $100 and weights a ton. Checking the description they both have dual pistons. The Costco one says it's as low as 4", and has two wheels in front instead of one.

I'm just gonna wait abit to see if it goes on sale at Costco (doubt it). The crappy tire jacks that were on sale all looked like garbage.

 

Got it for $100.

 

this is the one at Costco and it's $100 at the store:



Ignore the 1 star review, the dude was just complaining that it's super heavy.

i baught one cheap one from princess auto looks EXACTLY like the pic 4dgs posted. lasted me 2 years now its seized or something wont go down all the way its a POS if you ask me. when lowering the car u literally had to be so damn careful as soon as u hit the release point when turning the handle it dropped like a ton of bricks pretty unsafe. lol

 

This is the one I meant at Crappy Tire. Used to be a Michelin jack but I guess it's motomaster now. 1 year warranty.

I bought one of these from wal mart on sale for like $70 years ago. it was a torin black maxx. no problems just the jack handle spring broke. I use it about every day for 5 years, I gave torin a call and they sent me a replacement for free... i would recommend it any day.
I saw this the other day, northern has them in the book, under another name but would like to pick it up too, it jacks up higher.
