Default Great jack

Just thought I’d pass this along. I’ve been using this jack for years. It is a Sears #50137 3 ton jack. It is as sturdy as an ox yest not al large as some other floor jacks. Because it is not a “rapid pump” jack like harbor freight sells it can be used with only one if the two handle sections. I have actually cut that down to about 15” so the car can be raised with another parked next to it. I don’t own Sears stock. In fact, if interested, get one before the stores close. My local sears stock these or they are available at Sears.com with free shipping air $109.

Not a bad deal. It's always good to have a trusted jack around.
I bought a couple long-travel jacks from Harbor Freight several years ago and they have paid for themselves many times over. I have always had low cars, so the longer travel was needed. I paid $75 each for them when they were on sale. Have two makes things SO MUCH easier.
