I havent used them yet. I am waiting for some things to sell before I have the rest of the money for my lift kit. But it shouldnt be long. Then I will put them to the test. The jack looks great. Heavy and doesnt look cheap at all. The stands look ok but not nearly as beefy as the jack.

Check out OTC Inc in Mn. They make and sell a lot of high quality tools, jacks used to in their line. It used to be all made in Mn. Dont know if they sold out to China or if its still made in Mn.

Yes, please let us know if its still USA or Where made. I am in the market for a 3rd floor jack. How do you like this one ? Is it really as fast lifting as they state.

Thanks

Mine is not that exact one, mine's only 3 ton and it is made in China....
Good enough for the amount I use it though.

I'm sure if you Google it you can get it cheaper than what I paid for it up here locally, but here's one place:

Oh that's not all that terrible. I was thinking it was going to be outragouse because they didnt list prices.
