Hey all,
Just looking for some opinions in the saturated market of hydraulic floor jacks. I'm tired of having to stack blocks of wood to use my current jack lol. Share what you use and why you like it! This purchase will be for a 6.5 in lift on 33s.

I've got an older 2 1/2 ton Craftsman floor jack......no complaints. I think it came with a pair of jack stands as a package deal.

I have a 2.5 ton floor jack (dont use it much), a 5 ton floor jack that will lift a couple feet (pretty sure I got it at Napa, I've had it about 7 years now), and my Hi-Lift. Also got some jackstands I made that are a little over a foot taller than normal jackstands.

6 ton bottle jack from walmart for $20. I like it cause its cheap, good base, and has a good amount of height when you need it.

4 ton bottle jack from Harbor Freight. It works. When I have more money I'm definitely gonna get a floor jack, much nicer in my opinion.
Yea, they both seem like decent options. I guess a good set of jack stands and a bottle jack would suffice for my purposes.

I sometimes use the bottle jack my jeep came with. Floor jacks are amazing though. I need to buy myself one
I have a 10 year old,ultra cheap,3 ton Pro lift floor jack from somewhere.It couldn't have cost more than $60, 'cause me & my dad are some cheap SOB's.
Never let me down,yet.

Since you said hydraulic floor jack I suppose I should answer in the category. Harbor Freight floor jacks are fine.
