Looking for some recommendations on a low profile jack.

Ideally i'd like one similar to the style carried from Harbor Freight Tools:

Ideas on where i can get on ein Calgary? I checked out Canadian Tire - no thanks, Sears - hell no and pricness auto - poor selection.

Thanks.

I have a princess auto one that's on its last legs, but recently replaced it with a Canbuilt low profile - 2tonne, 2'' depth

He's loooooooow and built like a brick shit house - unfortunately that means it weighs a lot more than a princess auto one, but I don't think this one will be dying on me anytime soon

The Auto Value here in Winnipeg can order Strongarm jacks. They have a 2 ton that goes down to 2 3/4` and up to 20`. These are pro jacks and you can buy all the replacement parts, so this should last forever.

What, you can't just lift the car with 1 arm and do the work with the other?
