floor jack (this one's on topic!)

[PoshSnoop]

really. 3rd gen-specific...

by slim chance, do any of you have 1) a floor jack that; 2) works great with your 3rd gen T4R and; 3) also with your 3rd gen Prius?

I'm hoping to find something low profile enough to get under the Prius and high lift range enough to get the T4R's tires off the ground a bit.

brand, model, thoughts?

thx!

I have the harbor freight dual rapid rate idk pump jack. I think the lowest is like 2" and highest is 20"

With my lift I have the ether lift the truck under the tranny cross bar, lower control arms or subframe or the rear axles. On the pumpkin. But that would work for you.

so, there's a harbor freight just down the road from me, and the price is pretty inviting. i'll check it out. thank you, sir!

yup, no lift on the snoop, and minimal if it happens. hopefully my harbor freight isn't sold out of these things after this weekend. i'll have to drop by tomorrow. thanks!

I think the coupons do not work with floor jacks. Read the fine print. It will say.

I have the 3 ton harbor freight jack, works great!

I have a 15+ year old Sears jack. It looks exactly like a Craftsman jack (except the paint color). I would go for it rather than the Harbor Freight one. It works on me and my dad's 4Runners, 2000 Celica, 1986 Civic, 2008 Scion xD, and 1995 Nissan Maxima with no problems.

This one is a 1/4" lower and goes a few inches higher. It's a 2 ton and it costs more. I have it and like it.

2 ton Low Profile/Long Reach Steel Heavy Duty Floor Jack with Rapid Pump®

It can be hard to reach the frame rails with a lo-pro jack and short jack-stands, so I cut up a 16' x 2" x 12" board into 12" by 12" sections. I stack these to get the desired height under both my floor jack and jackstands.
