Default Floor Press specs?

I am thinking of getting a floor press at Harbor Freight. What is the minimum that I would need for overall work on my 1999 civic? I am getting it for when i replace the wheel bearings which will save me more than the cost of the press by doin it myself. I just wish i had the press when i needed to replace my wheel studs.

I see that they have a 6-ton bench press for $59, 6-ton floor press for $69, a 12 ton floor press for $79 and a 20 ton shop press for $239.99.


I am thiking the 12-ton floor press should be enough but any info/guidence is greatly appreciated

PS: this is the link to all of their hydraulic tools if u want to see what im talking about http://www.harborfreight.com/c...etype=

i would probably look into shipping costs for that thing before you go ahead and make a decision....the 12 ton weighs like 74 LBS.....

You want to at least get the 12 ton unit. The 6 ton one is not strong enough.

I just went on the harbor freight live chat section and their sales rep said it is only $11.99 for shipping, it weights 122lbs for the 12-ton press.

does anyone have this one?
