Unfortunately the $49.95 HF jack I had for 10 ten years took a dump. After doing some research I decided to get a aluminum jack....

That did not happen either.


A little harder effort wise to pump the jack up, and a lot heavier but I think the other features compensate.
longer reach
foot pump
and less than 3 inch height when down.
Lets see if it lasts 10 years.

That looks like this one on Amazon http://www.amazon.co...m=AF8EGQ3KRZQB6. The shipping on there is ridiculous tho.

This one I got is a bit longer.

If I have a chance later I will have another side by side pic to my old HF unit. This unit has a foot pedal, a T handle, and a knob for finer control over the lowering of the jack,

I wanted to get that jack too Allen, unfortunately (or fortunately, depending on how you look at it) I ordered the larger 4 ton jack instead. It's also fast pump, and so far has worked out really well.
