Jack for Sale at CT

http://www.canadiantire.ca/AST/brows...m%252BJack.jsp

On sale for $120 from $200 until tomorrow I believe. It has a lift range of 3 3/8" to 14 3/4". Just figured I'd post it up incase any dropped guys are looking for a more low-profile jack and want to save some money

^^ That should be plenty unless you are planning to lift the whole car at once, LOL! Mine's rated at 3000lb also and will lift the entire rear or front with no problems.

^^^

I have this jack....bought it last year at Crappy Tire when it was on sale. I think this is a better deal than what I got.

My car is lowered on Eibachs but I don't have any issue getting it underneath the car.

It's nice and light, just what I was looking for.

LOL

I almost didn't bother openning this thread when I read the title - "Jack" for sale at CT - I was thinking to myself why would someone make a thread about nothing being for sale at CT. Apparently its been a long day.

From someone that has "jack all" for tools this looks like a nice jack.

I picked up this jack. I used it to put on my Eibach sway bar kit, works awesome. I'm on Eibach Pro springs as well with a Kurookie bumper, even with this jack's low profile I still need to drive up onto some wood to reach the front jack point.

The jack itself works great, it's very light and easy to maneuver and has no problem lifting the car up at either end. Like someone else mentioned, you're not gonna lift the whole car at once with it so only being rated at 1.5 tons is just fine.
