Not really too confident about this jack anymore. Anyone have a lightweight jack recommendation? I don't want a snap-on or daytona, they are too heavy. I have to carry it from the shed to the driveway, and I'm just too lazy to lug the hundred some odd pounds around like that.

Prefer trolley jack.

 

Naaah one for the scrap metal bin that, just not worth the hassle if anything went wrong.

I have an Arcan 2 or 3 tonne from Costco, was about £95 about 6 years ago.
Heavy though....and I can't pull it along the drive as it's gravel. Good reliable jack though to be honest.

 

SGS alloy low profile or halfords are not bad
I have Draper evolution 3t ,highest reach from them all ,i like it but it weights 45kg

 

I have an Arcan 2 tonner also. It is heavy but that's probably a good thing!

 

If weight is your main concern, and price isn't an issue, then you should go for a motorsport aluminium trolley jack.
The one I have is only 14Kg, but I've seem them as low as 10Kg. They can be pricey though.

 

Looking at a few in hardware and auto parts stores, from the looks of it all the trolley jacks are identical to the Pittsburgh, just with a different coat of paint. Is there any that are higher quality? The only one that seemed different was a Craftsman.

 

some are dual pumps with better valves,rise car quicker , wheels mounting points are different,stronger wheels,wider longer base, longer warranty etc
