>>>>>>>>>>>>> Reaching out to the 914 community <<<<<<<<<<<

My buddy just picked up his full sized floor jack. Dang.....

Now I need to buy a full sized floor jack.

New or used as long as it's in good working condition.

Cheaper is better than expensive.

Sooner is better than later.

Anyone know of any good deals???? =-))))))

Much thanks in advance. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wink.gif)

I have several of the economy 1-3 ton floor jacks.

then I bought a motorhome...none of them can lift it...

So, I got the biggest one Sears sells...it is three tons, but it it heavyduty...

Now, on the lowered car...I just have four pieces of 2*10 laying near where the tires sit...drive in, put the pieces just in front of the tires...push car up on the pieces of wood, presto..your jack now fits fine.

I have bent a few jacks over the years...with trucks. buildings, and large problems...

I hate aluminum jacks..there is no bend...only break...not cool.
