I just bought a low profile form Harbor Freight this weekend for 90.00 bucks with tax. It works great ! You have to watch the coming down part since the release is a little quick. Part # 91039 Alum Jack.

I've got the same jack and it does work great. I still have a little trouble on the front end. Can't get it back to the lift points but you can get it to the crossmember. I'm not a big fan of that though so I just bought some rhino ramps and use those on the front. Either work though

WallMart has a "Black Jack" for about $70. It is a HEAVY duty professional 3 ton jack, turning handle locks or releases jack. It goes from 3.3 to 17 inches. Only disadvantage is that it is HEAVY, so you have to roll it everywhere.
