Floor Jack
What floor jack are you guys using? I would like to stay away from Chinese jacks but I'm having a hard time finding one.

I have a 2ton Craftsman... Small and works great. It won't budge my diesel truck though :-)

I haven't had much luck with the last 2 craftsman jacks I have owned.

I just went to our local O'Reillys auto parts store a couple days ago and bought a Mr Goodwrench jack.I was not to impressed with it but I was in a bind and had to have one. After I have used it several times it seems to be a pretty good jack. I got the 2 and a half ton one so I will see how long it last.

I needed a jack as well, and didn't see very good reviews on the craftsman jacks. I currently have a torin jack, but after a little while it wouldn't hold pressure. I just got this jack, and it looks to be great quality and has really good reviews.

I use this one for my ZL1 and TB SS. It has a long reach and fits under a stock ZL1 with no problems.

My craftsman is just a little one that's about 15 years old. I've never had a problem with it and it's one that fits in a little case that is easy to transport... Kinda an emergency jack. I think their quality probably has gone downhill though. I have used a large aluminum jack and they're very nice and it's kinda weird how light it is. :-)

Well I bought a 3 ton low profile jack from Harbor Freight. Paid an extra 30 bucks for the 2 year replacement.

I have a 3 ton AC Delco that I found on sale a few years ago. Works perfect and reaches far enough for all my vehicles.
