Default Hydraulic Floor Jacks
My car is pretty low and i'm sick of having to pull it up on boards or palstic mini ramps to get a low-profile jack under the car to get to the front and rear central jacking points. I'd love to have an AC hydraulic DK13HLQ but don't want to spend $550. After a long search I found a new jack that's being made. It's an Omega 29023.


The 2 1/2 inch saddle height is the lowest i've seen. It also keeps its low profile for almost the entire length of the jack. It fits under my car all the way to the center jacking point.

The only downside - it's large at 44" long and heavy at 127lbs.
