Are you ready for this?
Those who have won are going to be bummed.....
EUROPE'S FINEST 2 TON ULTRA LOW PROFILE FLOOR JACK
Looking for quality garage products gets discouraging. I've watched the quality of jacks go downhill fast. Even much revered jacks that were made in the U.S. are now being made overseas. To the CEO's of those companies I say, "Shame on you." That's why you haven't seen a jack in the Handbook lately - I refuse to lower my standards. When it comes to floor jacks, you shouldn't lower your standards either. I've finally found a floor jack from Europe that is packed with features - you'll appreciate all the little things it does long after you've forgotten the price. With a 2 3/4" saddle clearance, our 2 ton floor jack has the lowest profile in the world yet is capable of lifting 4,000 lbs. to a height of 18 1/4". In a jam? Take the saddle out and your lifting point is just 1 3/4"! Notice the side rails, too. (Most jacks have side rails that go up immediately, so no matter how low the jack pad, the jack is useless if you can't get it under the car due to high side rails!) This floor jack has a hidden central internal wheel that allows you to pivot and slide the jack in any direction before you raise the saddle. This eliminates sliding the jack in and out from under the vehicle when positioning it. The T-bar handle also makes the descents more controllable. (Ever try to lower a jack with a "round tube" handle while your hands are greasy?) With a simple turn, the jack lowers the load smoothly; let go and the spring loaded handle automatically stops the descent. No more fussing with a hard-to-control handle! The convenient foot pedal also allows you to pump up the saddle quickly to the lift point, then use the T-bar handle from there. For safety, the jack is also fitted with a safety valve within the hydraulics to prevent overloading. This is the nicest floor jack I've ever had the pleasure of using. Made for us in Spain. (Floor jack is an additional $10.00 for shipping).
Also includes:
Thick Rubber Saddle Pads
Jack Stands, 5-Ton
