Looking for a car jack solution

[Freebeer187]

Anyone reccomend a type of jack or some other tool to allow the front end of a car to be rissen? Im looking for something a little more heavy duty than a typical tire jack.

I was thinking possibly (dunno what they are called) the jacks that have a broom handle and you pump up to raise the car. Then you place these stand in place jacks under the car (I've seen them with a slver body and orange top).

Any reccomendations? I would like it if I can get the whole shibang for under $300 but beggers cannot be choosers.

Floor jacks can be found at almost any auto stores. Personally i would go to sear.
Same goes for the Jack stands.

So you have the jack, and you got it for 100 bucks, but no one believes you have actually used it....

lmao do you want me to post dam pictures

 

[Renesis07]

just use the spare tire jack

 

[bluzohh6]

no silent because we don't care. Becuase you will say you are going to post pictures and then three months later when you actually go out and buy the jack then you will post pics. So what does it matter?

 

[Lord Tin Foilhat]

[Mook]

You do make things up. you said you had a motor for your junk, turns out the only motor you have is a junk 305. So you do make things up
