I'm in need a better, lower, full sized floor jack and want the collective wisdom of the list. I need a low profile to get under the TR3 and TR4 and would like to not have to drive up on blocks befor

Hi Tom, I had the same problem with Casper ... I got one of Harbor Frieghts "Racing Jacks", fairly cheap ... not great but it does the job, fits under the frame with no problem. Good Luck ... -- Bill

My Kids gave me a Craftsman aluminum "racing" floor jack for Christmas that is GREAT! It will go under my TR4 with a little room to spare and three pumps and it is off the ground. Mark

I got mine at Costco many many years ago and it's 3 1/2" high so it easily fits under the TR6. The new light weight aluminum ones are even lower and are available at the "warehouses" as well as Sears

I bought an Alltrade aluminum jack at Costco a few weeks ago before reinstalling my overdrive gearbox. It made that two person job into a one person job. It's also low enough to fit easily under the

I have a Allied floor jack with 4500 lb capacity that I bought at Sam's Club at least 10 years ago for about $100. I bought it to use for my 911 so I wanted max lift range. The one I have goes from 5

I'll second the Sears Craftman floor jack, in my case #50186. I bought it with a pair of jackstands, and a seat creeper, for a combo price of $80, specifically because it would go up to 21 inches...

I've gotten some really good ideas and thanked everyone off list. I'll post my findings after I explore a little more and come up with "best clearance" and "best height" catagories. Thanks again for

You might also consider best reach. With my jack I cannot use it under the diff from the get-go as the jack body is so short (in length) that there is not room under the car to pump the handle. Geo

One more source for your compilation. I have an AC DK20Q, which I love for my TR6. Has 3.1" minimum height, so will get under with all flat tires. See http://www.asedeals.com/hydraulicjacks2.html It'

Mine's closer to 40 inches long, lifts to 24" and was completely free. But it did cost me some O-rings to get it to stop leaking. No idea what weight it's rated for, but it will lift a Triumph bodil
