The time has come to get a new floor jack. My crappy old, small craftsman won't hold up much anymore, and it's never had enough vertical lift.
I don't have a ton of floor space, so I'd like one that isn't too huge when not in use, and slides under tight spaces, and lifts plenty high.
What floor jacks do you guys have and what are some good features to look for?
Also, What jack points do you guys use in the front of the car? The frame is rather high up off the ground, so with the jack I have had, I can't even lift the wheel off the ground if I jack on the frame. I usually wind up jacking on the frame near the eccentric bolts or literally on the lower control arm (especially if I just wanna get a wheel off the ground).
If you have any advice on what jack to get, and where you like to use it on the car, I'd love to hear some advice.
Thanks!
