I bought a new jack from Canadian Tire earlier this year after I saw it in one of their flyers.

I give !

It works great and slides under the car no problem. I knew it was meant to be when I saw a picture of an S2000 on the box. At $59.99 it's a good deal.

I even checked the availability online for you Dylan and they have them in stock at the Red Deer North store (300 6380-50 AVENUE - CORNER 67TH ST & GAETZ AVE).

Mike.
Nice find!!! Thanks mike... their north store is right next to my store, too

$59.99?
I might just have to go get one for a back-up to my big floor jack.

When you put it under the central jacking points do you still have room to move the handle up and down?

Lots of room to move the handle up and down. Works exactly like a medium sized jack, the lift portion just has a lower height (even has extra room to slide under the car). Using the lift points at the front of the car (behind the front wheels) you can lift the car enough so the rear tires are off the ground. I use it all the time to change both tires at once. I haven't used my large floor jack since.

I'm assuming it's a Motomaster brand?

Don't think so...I'll have to check the jack to see what it says. Or perhaps Dylan still has his empty box.

Yup, I checked it out today. It is "Qualified". Kind of dorky company name but if it works well, I wouldnt' complain

I may have to get one even though I am selling my car. Nothing wrong with having a low profile lift. Wonder if it can go on sale in the future?
