guess what it is... hehe

 

aluminum floor jack.

I have been thinking about getting the one harbor freight has for sale... $179 I think it is...

 

Aluminum "Racing" Floor jack...

I'm too late. I was looking at them ar Harbor freight too...

 

too easy... It's was $179 at HarborFreight...(the red and blue one's are $169). It's really nice!

 

very nice I definitely need to order one.

That looks awesome. Does it fit easily under lowered cars?

 

Damn, something like that's gotta slow you down at the strip - even in aluminum. I'll bet my OEM jack is lighter.

 

That is neat... Is it small enough to fit under our low cars?

 

Trick.

 

you really have to see the thing, mind you , i have the "non" racing jack from harbour freight, and i have to remove the hat to fit it under the front crossmember. i cannot lift it. it is heavy, no i would not be in the right mind to drive around with it daily, or even at all, but the aluminum one is built better, has smoother action (ever tried to lower the car from what seems like five feet slowly without dropping it?, it is scary withouth a NICE hydrolic jack) and it has rubber hat that sits LOW.
it is WORTH it, they used to go for 500-700 each

How many pumps to full height? Also heard a lot of people say they leak, so get your stands under asap.

 

the regular one? too many IMO.
the "racing" one i heard is 5-6, but my lifts higher. and it is STEADY, i left it up without jackstands for two days, did not drop a fraction of an inch

I have one too make sure your on level ground and centered because it the car leans to one side the side plates of the jack will stress and fracture, then it will crumble. Those sides are onl cast al. This was the warning i was given at the track by a few auto x guys who have seen it happen.

 

I haven't used it on the car yet, but, the lift pad is quite low. So getting it under my low HB shouldn't be an issue. It also works great(so far). My wife stood on it while I operated the jack, and it's handle operation is very smooth. Granted she's only 105lbs -or so, not the 2000lb weight of my car. This jack gets a big from me!
