Needed: Good cheap floorjack

[StereoInstaller1]

yeah, I know good and cheap are mutually exclusive...

Any suggestions? I hear the "Aluminum front roller" style are crap, and last about a year and a half. The cheap ones anyway.

I do want a low profile, and would like a foot pump.

Any specific brand/model recommendations?

Thanks,
Luke

The Sears Craftsman jack is only like 100 bucks. It's not a foot pump but it is a great jack. You can't go wrong with Craftsman.

harbor freight; from an old post of mine:

Couldnt pass this up, the store here in salem didnt have it in their circular but I had the fella look it up on the internet. Gave me the 69$ price, then I looked at slickdeals and there is a 20% coupon. See: http://forums.slickdeals.net/showthr...ghlight=harbor

Just got home, not bad for 55$. It even can lift up a couch, woooo.....

The one that Browntown posted that they sell at Harbor Freight is the EXACT same jack, they're made my the same manufacturer, they're just different colors.

My HF jack has been great for over two years now.

does the HF coupon not load up or is just me?

[browntown]

oh thats an ancient post dude, go to slickdeals.net, click on forum, and search for harbor freight. Theres always one coupon or another.

this might work: clicky

Even at normal price, the HF jack is about $100 (what I paid for mine). It's done its job great for the money, just wish it was even lower (2.5" minimum saddle I think).

HF FTW

Who cares when all you have to do is go to sears and get a new one for free.

Jordan tried that with his. They basically told him to EAD. After he finally got it replaced, it died a few months later.

I've heard nothing but bad from the Sears jack, yet nothing but good from the HF jack. HF FTW.

I got this set at Pep Boys in L.A. in February. 99.00 including tax.



Jack alone was 69.99. They are good quality cheap tools.

ive had many craftsman tools break and the SEARS here replaces them without question. i also have the big aluminum craftsman, and it works great.

Yeah mine too. But I think it was one for those few craftsman tools that doesn't that the lifetime warranty. I know some of their ratchet type torque wrenches dont have it so it wouldn't surprise me if all of their jacks didn't either.
