  • Floor jack?

    So, im in the market for a new floor jack and i'm having a little trouble deciding on one.

    I've previously had two of the canandian tire aluminium racing jacks. They are nice and low profile but just don't last, and i'd like to not replace it every year.


    i've been looking at this one from NAPA...$220ish

    any other sudgestions? Its got to be low profile... the my beetle doesn't leave much room

    Get two of something like this https://www.kmstools.com/3-ton-low-p...oor-jack-12258 or the same from PA , way easier to work with two jacks or get 4 for a poor mans hoist.

      I heard the Costco ones are pretty good!

          I've been using a Costco one for a couple of years now and I got no problems with it...picks up my 03 Pathfinder with ease.

            I just bought a Costco one, different model, lower profile and $50 cheaper than the previous model...and a 3ton.

              After thinking about it, i decided to just pickup one of the crappy aluminium racing jacks. I like being able to toss it in the back of my bug and i dont want to be packing an extra 85lbs.
              With only 36hp... every little bit helps
