HD Gortech Scissor Jack

[White_Comanche]

Guys, I just came across a very heavy duty scissor jack. Looks to be a quality product. In recent weeks I've been doing research on the best portable lifting solution for my MJ. I've considered all options (such as using a bottle jack + extensions). THIS might be the ticket.

 

I like how an extension can be mounted for extra height. Below is one of the pictures they have in the gallery. Very reasonably priced too!

rated for 3.5 tons. They are built incredibly well, and you can still get them on ebay and at army / navy stores. They are usually about $70usd

Thanks for an alternate route. It's considerably less expensive, and smaller. I'll probably be on the lookout for one.

 

Do you know the max lifting height on these? I've done some research, but most pages so far don't have any specs.

I have to check max height. I believe this is max height. I really like it. The base is nice and wide too. It can be made lower profile if you grind off the steel peg at the top and just weld on a simple steel plate or steel cup. I made an adapter for mine instead which just fits on top of the adapter and has a set screw.
