Default Costco Arcan 3 ton Aluminum Floor Jack

My local Costco currently has this. I've been told they carry this only once or twice a year. It was the Costco at the District (Tustin). You can call ahead and ask them for the Arcan 3.5 ton floor jack. It will fit under your lowered car (3.5"). My moderately low 335D on Stock 18s sits right above 5" at the jack points.

It was around $90

Feature list on this 3.5 Ton Steel Jack:

* 3.5 inch saddle height for low-clearance applications
* Maximum lift height of 21 3/8 in.
* Two Stage Quick lift pump.
* Reinforced side rails for safety and durability.
* 2 piece padded Handle
* Overall Dimensions approx 29in Long x 13in Wide.
* Shipping Weight 105 lbs.

Sells for $200 here:

Nice...i have the aluminum Arcan that costco used to sell, been about 5 years and it's still going strong.

3.5" saddle height is nice, except that the s2k's front jack point is so far back that just about every low profile jack requires ramps anyway. Good for jacking up from the side though

Tire Central (tire shop doh) uses these instead of lifts every single day. So they have to be pretty darn reliable.

That look a lot like the Harbor Freight one.. and the red one above looks like the Omega brand. Are they all coming out of the same factory and just being re-badged?

would still need ramps or 2x4 for stock height with this jack? been looking for a good jack an 90 seems reasonable.
