Default Floor jack sale

"OnTheGo" (Greg) emailed me this heads up today about a really good looking floor jack at a great price. Less than 100 bucks for a light weight aluminum low starting point jack (3.5" - 14.75"). If I didn't just buy a motorcycle jack, I'd be all over this. Thanks also to OnTheGo for the following pics.

Nice. I hate to be Captain Obvious, but this will fit under the centre jacking points? How did you know I was in the market?

I can't say for sure. Greg didn't say, either. It might not get under the front edge of your bumper. You may still have to drive it up onto boards. The rear should be no problem.

Nice, I've been thinking of picking up a new jack as my current one is just a bit too high at its lowest point. This one looks pretty well built, but I'd have to take a look at it.

It says on the box that its height when all the way down is 3.5"

That'll make it under the jacking points no problem.

Gary, Woodson was wondering about getting to the front center jacking point. You have to shove it under the car quite a ways and the back top of the jack might hit the front bumper.

Remember, it's only 100 bucks. Don't be expecting to get a 500 buck jack.

This is a must have item (aluminum jack) for those who change their wheels out at the track!
