Looking for suggestions. I’m having a hard time finding a decent floor jack. Prefer a 2T lightweight low profile rapid lift jack. Northern Tool has nothing and not finding anything I like on Google.

As always, economical option is the Harbor Freights. Otherwise, check out your local Napa for some of their floor models and put hands on them. Feel the weight of them. I’ll see if I can find you some part numbers.

I have 2 of these I use to jack the car up. I believe I have had them 8-10 years. You can find coupons in magazines to get the jack cheaper

OMG, the YT review at the bottom of the page is classic!

:ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:
You will have to post the one you are talking about. I guess I'm not seeing it

I hate reading reviews because everything out there will have some negative ones then you second guess buying everything

I didn’t like the choices at Harbor Freight but I’ll look at them again. Thanks!
I have been very happy with them. If one breaks I will replace it with a new one

I have a 2T Harbor Freight aluminum, it's been good for me.
And their jack stands too, 3T & 6T, have been good.

Are there any issues with them reaching the jacking points? Or are ramps needed?
They reach pretty well and I used them on my Daytona. I bought rubber covers for them being there is only a a small pad and one came off. I put lift pads on the Hellcat and they make jacking up the car a lot easier
https://zl1addons.com/collections/charger-2011-2018/products/charger-lift-pads

not sure if this is the exact ones I bought but they look like this

There are other lift pads out there but if you do use a jack a few times a year or more to me these are a must. Wish I would have had them for the Daytona. Makes jacking the car up in the front as easy as the back with the factory lift pads

Last I knew they still didn't have a replacement for their recalled jacks they just want to give you $25 store gift card. O and they are usually out of stock of their more expensive jack stands....

They have a new set of aluminum 3 ton cylinder/pin styles.

And then they came out with a triple safety system stand. Which I think the design is ridiculously overkill and super nice.

Hey guys. This got off topic. I was looking for a floor Jack not Jack stands. In any case, I took @vortecd ’s recommendation. The newJack kind of goes good with my car color. Thanks for the input! A1E5EF45-F8E4-49DF-A212-BA5D6DC6F927.jpeg
