    Lightbulb Good jack on sale....

    Howdy,

    During build class there were a few people that were interested in getting a jack similar to the one they used in class. Folks were saying it's hard to get them but I found this similar one on sale.

    The specs state the lift height is 5.5 inches. I don’t think it will work.

    Harbor Freight sell one that goes down to 3 and 1/4 and up to 24 in. And it is real long too. I think it cost me 189. Works well during my build.

    "Lift Range: 5-1/2-In. To 17-1/2-In."

    I copy pasted the specs to prevent confusion.....

    That jack you posted wont fit under the main frame rails if your ride height is about 4.5". Also reaching into the frame rails will be hard. You need something lower and longer. I have 2 of these and they work good.
