I just use a low profile craftsman I got like 10 years ago. Doesn?t really matter. The one thing I did get was some pinch weld rubber adapters so I don?t jack up the pinch weld strip.

I don't use a jack often, but when needed my little aluminum race jack for Harbor Freight does the job. Hear their new Daytona line is really good. Agree with nhcowboy about getting the proper adapters so the jacking points are not damaged.

The big harbor freight jacks are well worth the money. I'm particularly fond of the low profile long reach model. You won't find a better deal.
I don't like the race aluminum jacks because the lift is very low. Fine for changing tires, but a big headache for anything else.

If you need cheap then all the cheap trolley jacks are the same.

This^^i got the low profile long reach a year ago after harbor freight finally sent me a coupon for it. Even the cashier asked for the number on the coupon

Look for the long-reach version at HF.

Thanks for this idea. I've been using 2x4, this is much better.

There are also pinch weld jack adapters out there that go very well with the large jacks. I have this one:

The plastic rocker cover on the Stinger just moves out of the way to make room for the slotted adapter. Lift the car just forward or rearward of the jack point then put the jack stand under the jack point.
