My Motomaster trolley jack finally gave up the ghost, blew a seal. What is everyone using for floor jacks? Not looking to spend much. Are the Cosco ones any good?

Yeah I've had great luck with the Torin brand Costco ones.

I have the motomaster low pro one that is similar to the Torin. Has worked great for 5+ years now. I do always make sure to use jackstands just in case.

Is the seal accessible to replace just that part?

I just bought the Torin 3 Ton Low Profile from Costco last week. $109. Its heavy as shit but I'm sure will work great and with Costcos warranty. Good deal

My low profile motomaster has been great for 3 years now. They come on sale every month or so.

Also costco jacks are good because of the lifetime return policy

Got this jack as well a couple days ago. Had no problem doing a tire swap last night.

I have the 4ton floor jack from Costco and it works great. I only use it a couple times a year though...usually to swap out my winter/summer tires.

Hasn't failed me but I only lift a couple times a year for oil and tires. Don't do anything else myself as of now.
