Nice Aluminum Jack $50

I bought an aluminum jack from Walmart tonight. It was on sale marked down to $50 from $75. Wieghts 24lbs and the plate fits perfectly inside jacking space on frame. Also fits under car without any ramps or 2x6s lowest height is 3-1/4".

Just wanted to let you guys know. Much better than my heavy iron floor jack.

They also have some very nice jacks from Hotrod magazine at Walmart for $12! They say Hotrod on them and have flames! Pretty cool!

Too bad I didn't see this earlier. I just got my old dinosaur resealed for $60 & I could have had one of these instead

That looks like the one I saw at Sams Club for just over $100. I think I need to go to Walmart.

Can you provide detail on manufacturer, model#, etc.? I need a jack and may have to make a trip to Walmart.

Also, have you tried it yet? What do you think?

Thanks.
