I got a 2 Ton hydraulic floor jack at the house, I usually use the lifts at work when I need something done though.

Same 3 1/2 ton with speed lift pump and large stands (4 or 6 T not 100% sure).
Also own a smaller 2 ton but only for assisting support or to jack something else up/down when on the stands.

Wow I guess I need to get some new stands. I have a 3Ton jack and only a couple 2 ton stands. Maybe my buddy will trade me. lol

He went and bought 6 ton stands for a cavalier??? seriously I think he is ******** mechanically.

i use a 3 ton bottle jack and numuorus jack stands, not sure of the rating on those.. i really want a quick lift floor jack... one on the nascar style ones..

I like the horizontal ratchet-type jack, it's quick & fairly stable. I bought this several years ago; I've been looking for a replacement but they seem to have disappeared off the face of the earth.

I'm actually not sure what this thing is called so my keywords are probably all screwed up. I was wondering if anyone either:
a) knows the name for this type of jack, or
b) if anybody sells them?

thanks.

3 ton from Harbor Freight with stands. Need to get some more newer, bigger ones though.

The tire shop down the street just uses 3 tons jacks

I use a two ton aluminum floor jack.

 

[lone12star]

We just use 2 1/2 -3 1/2 ton jacks and it'll pick up the ram, but at home for personal use I have a 3 1/2 ton craftsman jack with 3 ton stands

I use a 2 1/2 ton harbor freight aluminum jack. Nice and light.

Anybody ever used one of these? I busted my jack and have been thinking about replacing it with one of these.
