I bought this from walmart few years and has worked great for me. I paid 90 bucks for it. I would buy another one.

Looks pretty stout, is it made in the US or China?

I've got a Craftsman 3 ton jack. It's worked really well for me but I'm sure it's made in China unfortunately.

Made in China

Even the Snap Ons are made in Asia.

I have the same one as you O77. I found it holding up an abandoned car so I got it for the cost of some concrete blocks.

my craftsman looks just like that, it's a 3 ton and it was a hundred bucks, BUT, it came with jack stands and a creeper.

You need to get you some of those 6 ton Jack stands from HF next time they go on sale again for $24.99. What 3 tons do you have? Retro mentioned someone having some HF jack stands and they bent over. Probably the 3 tons. Also, the HF 3 ton don't have enough height for the SBs unless they are lowered. I got a set of the 6 tons though and they are great. I have had the Box Van on those when it was fully loaded with household items and they held up fine and had plenty of lift.

NO joke, I have done mothing but a couple minor things to the trucks. I hate cold weather. So looking forward to Mid March. Tornado Season !!! Yipee !!! But at least its warm.

I'll add. One jack to avoid, is the HF Aluminum 2 ton Jack. I love that jack for what it is, but hate it for being a *****. It works on compact cars very well, but the second you try to lift a Square with it, you'll have jack oil going everywhere. It flat ass won't lift nothing but a compact car without leaking jack oil past the seals, and I do mean alot of jack oil as in a puddle, not just seepage. I like it for the quick lift / pump ratio, and the light weight. I think its actually lighter than my 5 ton bottle Jack I keep in the Box Van. I'd just avoid it unless you are buying for compact cars.
