It has a max height of 21", so great for oil changes or the like with your low-pro cars.

You did indeed. It's an extremely beefy, sturdy jack but dear god does it suck to carry up a flight of stairs.
It's somewhat low-profile, but nothing as low as the aluminum racing jacks they sell. The upside is that is had good lift range and works great for jacking up trucks.

I refuse to buy princess auto junk any longer.
I had one of their jack stands collapse while a car was on it
i went through 2 low profile jacks. The first one started leaking down after several months of use. The second one didn't leak but one day just collapsed down and wouldn't pump up anymore with no warning.
I bought a small (<10mm) wrench sets from them and half of the wrenches have broken when just snugging up little bolts or like #6 nylocks (the open-end portion would just break right off)
I had a 1/2'' breaker bar break at about 200ft-lbs (never sniped it or abused it)

Btw, if you want a quality low profile jack, buy a Canbuilt one.
VERY low profile, VERY sturdy and VERY durable. I love mine, best low profile jack i've ever owned.
Yes, it's more than a piece of shit princess auto jack, but it's well worth every penny and it will outlast it by decades.

:werd: I have had the same experience with their jacks. Lately I am going to Lordco for tools and basic equipment. They sell Strongarm which holds up quite well, the aluminum racing jack is on sale for 299 right now, and it is only 43 pounds.
Edit with link: http://www.strongarminc.com/product.php?lang=en&ModelNumber=962AL&ID=138
3.5 inch low height

I'm waiting for this one, too. Hopefully someone posts a heads-up when it happens because I notoriously miss all the sales lol.

I bought the one from Costco. Low profile and it'll jack my truck up enough to change the tire in the front. I think it's $119?

Just bought this one last week :thumbsup: they were selling out fast, when I got to Can Tire they only had two left.
I had this one (also from can tire)

They go on sale for as low as $99.99 but they're not that low (3.5" I believe) it was an awesome jack for the price but now with side skirts I can't get it under my car anymore :banghead: so this Michelin one being 2.5" should be perfect and a 24" max lift height is awesome.
