I wouldn’t trust that thing lifting my mower
lol I’d hate to take your money

What’s wrong with that little floor jack? Do you know who the parent mfg’r is and they simply stuck an AC Delco sticker on it?...

too small and to me not stable enough to be under a car
Manufacturer doesn’t matter
It may be ok if needed to change a tire along the road but I wouldn’t be using it to do much more

A small Asian boy named Fong.

I bet you can't get a hat trick. No bannings unless you rip someone off in the trading post. But even then you have to get caught red-handed.

Sounds like it was a good idea I didn't join AS instead.

I would hope the co-worker would never pass along a floor jack that was set up for failure piston/seal-wise...to anybody.

I use ramps and if needed I have access to a couple car lifts

I have some jack stands that i trust a full size truck up on at all 4 corners. They have pins that slide in in case the mechanism that holds it fails.

I bought a 4 ton jack from HF for $150 with the 20% coupon. Works good enough for what i need it for. I got some old Crapsman 4 ton jacks stand that i got for Christmas one year back when Crapsman was worth buying.

the only ones I’d trust are the 6 tons or bigger that has a bigger base area

I’m with ya there...I’ve got two sets of ol’ school ramps. But you can only ramp one end...then comes a floor jack, and jack stands if it’s gonna be a time consuming, day to day deal from underneath. Or jack it up and put a second set of ramps underneath.

That's what they are.
