I need to do my rotors and was wondering were i might find a descent floor jack probably a 3 ton . Everything I have looked at is pretty weak


Thank you

 

Whats the price you want to pay? Princess Auto sometimes gets some quality jacks in with the rest. I didn't get a really heavy duty one, its aluminum framed.

 

Ya thing that will be okay to lift the front end one side at a time ?

 

i second princess auto. i have one from there and has been great . . .

 

Sweet
I have never used a aluminum framed one so I am a little Leary of them specially with the weight of the cummins

 

I use one that I bought a canadian tire, just a cheapy, works fine, I can lift the whole front end on try

Cool guess that answers my question. All i need is to lift to put on the jack stands so that will save me a bit of cash. thank you all

 

Bought a big jack at cosco...Worked great on the 3 cars...Used it once on the dually and it blow its brains out...

 

I use the aluminum 2T (I think?) jack for my tire rotations on the 12V. I use it quite regularly and it doesn't seem to have a problem. Easy to maneuver too when you are on your back.

 

I used to have a 2.25t jack I carried around. Did fine with the dually. But after 7 years of riding around in the back of my trucks, the seals finally had enough and wouldn't lift very much. I'd get a 3t if I was gonna leave it at home, but a smaller one will work just fine to pack around. The front end of these trucks are around 4200 lbs (mine weighed 1970kg), so for just lifting one side of the truck, it should be ample.

 

I have a Black Jack 3 ton that i got a Costco like 10 years ago. works great still, I've abused the heck out of it. its sat out side a couple winters when I didn't have a garage even. its big and heavy though I don't like packing it around.

 

Me too...they dont sell it in Edmonton anymore though.

 

I've got 3TON FROM princess auto that lifts everything fine. Mine is red with a white handle.

 

Darn... that was same type I got was the blackjack....
