Default HF Low profile long reach 2 ton racing jack

Just went on sale... I don't see this too often. No affiliation, just there was discussion on the best jack for lower(ed) cars. $119 - Leroy

That is a pretty good price for that jack.

Is this the one? It's $139.99 here. I actually bought the 3 ton Pittsburg one last week for $80 and change. Pretty heavy jack and feels pretty solid.

What's the height of the jacking pad on those?

I need to find the lowest profile jacking pucks and lowest lift I can. I'm tired of having to drive up on boards to get a jack under the Z

Lol I literally just bought the HF 1.5ton for $60. Has anyone reached the crossmember with a 1.5ton before?

Get an assortment of 2x4 and 4x4 blocks. Also, get some short 2x10 or 2x12 boards to drive up on. Makes thing a lot easier when working with
floor jacks.

The 2 ton item #68050 has a range of 2-5/8 in. to 23-3/4 in.
It is heavy.
