Show me your JACKS!

Got this from Walmart on clearance for 99 bux!! Low profile, made by Torin, 3 ton. It's the bomb. I bought the cross beam from harbor freight and can lift up whole side at one time with one jack.

I never knew a cross bar existed until now. Freakin brilliant! I'm picking one up this weekend. Thanks!

Thread title is plural, so all of them.

Here's mine:

And on subject, I use a 3 top floor jack I got from Harbor Freight...it works with my Camaro, my F150, and my BS.

Thank you for the precise pic with the clearance. How much wheel clearance to floor does 18 inches get you with the springs in full weightless extension?

Preface: I do not have a lift. It goes high enough to lift both front and back wheels on one side simultaneously using one of the two jack points. I've never measure how far off the floor the tires are, but high enough to remove a wheel.

Ugh. Was about to swoop in and grab one, but didn't notice the fine print on the coupon.

Here’s my jack.

I believe that’s the wild card when playing Sequence

This is an old thread I realize, but here goes.
Has anyone replaced the scissor jack that comes with the BS with any other type of jack?

What is your reasoning for replacing the factory jack?

The scissor jacks work well to tuck inside the spare. So I would recommend keeping it. But if you wanted to add something extra, I added a small bottlejack, and the bottlejack buddy kit.

Stability

Had no idea the factory jack was unstable. Seems like that would be a safety issue worthy of a recall.

No jack is truly stable. Some are more stable than others but all jacks require caution.

This! Don't get under anything sitting on a jack. If you're changing a flat on the roadside find a couple of big rocks to use for chocks.

I get that. Just use common sense.
