My low profile 1.5-ton Craftsman has served me well for 3 years. So well, I would by another.

I've had my craftsman for 2 years now and use it religously. Never had a problem with it.
This is the one. http://www.sears.com...=9&blockType=G9
Ive had the one at Pepboys that's blue and like $50-$60. The pump failed while jacking the car up and wouldn't let it go down nor up, which was a nightmare because I didn't have any other jack so I had to go out and buy the craftsman.

Exact same one I have. You'd never appreciate a light weight jack until you've had one. LOL

i have a craftsman jack also but not the one in the link. works perfectly fine, never had problems with the pump. only problem i had was with the piece that connects to the rod that allows you to jack the jack up broke on me. called craftsman and got replacement pieces.

ive used it over 10 times in the past 2 months and its great and it fits nicely under the car....
i also have have the craftsman 1.5 ton jack and its been good to me for a couple years but started to leak... to each their own ya know.
cant beat the harbor freight deal right now, just make sure you follow the steps to bleed it when you get it and your good to go

6 ton Duralast SUV jack from Autozone, bought it 4 years ago & never had a problem. There are no low pro jacks I know of that will reach the sub-frame jack point without driving onto wood planks first.
'00 Silverstone w/ 05' F22, SOS 1200 kit, stock exhaust, test pipe... 15psi @ 8500 rpm = faster than stock.. used to be turbocharged
