I have one from Sams Club I bought a couple years ago that I like a lot.
I don't like the one pictured because the lift face has 4 "teeth" that like to leave indentions!

HAHAHA In all seriousnes, frame connectors are probally the best upgrade. Noticible in stifness. Easy to put on too. Weld in of course.:awsome:

Is he close to you?

[J-rod]

Is he close to you?

:yes:

couple miles away.

[wick]

:yes:

couple miles away.


Ahh, that makes it nice. He a good welder? know the proper way of installing them? If your smart, you will get the ones with the seat supports. You are like me, a big boy. That helps alot with the flimsy floor these cars have.

didnt see any online and i dont have a membership. is the one you got a flat face? i dont see how that could be very secure....even the cheap lifts have some kind of "teeth" for it to secure to.

Good. It should be nice then.

thats the jack i have. i dont have any problems at all with it

[sutyak]

I've done 3 sets of SFCs. All from LMM with the seats cross brace.
I support the front by drive-on ramps (turned around for room to move), and the rear by jacks on the axle tubes right by the shocks (or A arms for a Cobra).
I set the vehicle as level as I can with what I have and try to mimic the sprung weight as it would sit on the ground.

Jared the jack I use has a square face with a rubber grip mounted in the center.
No slippage issues, and no dents left behind.
They don't have the jack on the site only in store.
I don't have a membership anymore either since they moved!

[J-rod]

how about this one or something like it?

[J-rod]

well after reading all the reviews on that craftsman...no way id buy it.

[sutyak]

That's almost exact as the one as I bought from Sam's except mine has a square head and no teeth.

Smallville had a set not sure if he still has them or not but if you was to come get them we could put them on at my garage at the same time.

[J-rod]

he sold them already...may have others soon.

The Sears jack is no good. The higher sides of the jack's Body will not let you go far underneath to get to the frame rails. You think the companies selling these would have figured that out yet. Everybody is not a 4X4. If your car is lowered forget it. My neighbor has an low profile Aluminum jack that fits under his car well. I know they sell them at Pep Boys. I just would not overload an aluminum jack.

I saw an ad for it in Modified Mustangs Magazine. I just remembered the website. I'll check and see if there was a price and place to buy when I get home.
