Powerbuilt 640912 All In One 3 Ton Bottle

Powerbuilt 640912 All In One 3 Ton Bottle

I bought two of those to replace the brakes (both front and rear) on a 2007 Honda Pilot. It fits fine under the vehicle using the lowest setting. So if the car had more clearance off the ground I could raise the insert and move the pin to higher setting. I am not so sure it would fit under a regular car, not an SUV (just something to keep in mind). Both units work well. The instructions are really minimalist and it took me a few minutes to realize that I needed to turn the tiny valve at the base of the unit to a fully closed position (clockwise) in order for the jack to start going up when I was pumping the handle. You can use the removable handle (it has grooves) to turn the valve. In order to lower the jack, you can use the handle to turn the valve counter-clockwise. Do it very slowly though, if you want the car to go down gracefully. Other than that everything is pretty obvious" pump to raise the jack. Lower the lever to lock the stand. Raise the lever to release it - You may have to raise the jack just a bit before lowering it if the lever is made stuck by the weight on the jack and you can't release it in its current position.

  2. I bought two of these from Tractor supply for $29.99 each and
    another $9 total for shipping. Used them to change my oil and
    rotate the tires, they work great, easy to lift my F150 4x4
    extended cab and felt safe under the truck with the self locking
    jack stands. Easy to release to get them out too, comes with
    two handles on each jack for letting them down and jacking them
    up. Very satisfied, would highly recommend over a regular bottle
    jack, plus it's 3 tons!

  3. This stand is great! It is very stable and locks in place as you raise it. I did not have any problem releasing the jack to lower it. It just takes a little mechanical aptitude.

  4. Works great as a jack and a stand. I can't quite get it under the frame of my envoy but I just jack it up a little with the cars jack then slide this baby under it to finish the job.

  5. It works exactly as depicted. If you are not sure if it is worth it, let me explain that it is a 2 for 1 tool. Even if you buy the absolute cheapest similar tool at Walmart (a bottle jack and separate jack stand) you will spend more and take up significantly more space. These are great. I have 2 that I use extensively with my Toyota 4Runner. I love them! My best friend is a certified mechanic and wants a couple for his birthday coming up soon. They work; indeed work well, and are very compact.

  6. I've read the reviews. A lot of negative reviews. The product I got was great, still working great, not a problem yet. It's great to see a company think outside the box and put great ideals all in one. It's saved me a lot of time.

  7. Tractor Supply sells this Jack for $30 Bucks. I bought it today. Works great, but make sure you can store it in your truck. Its bulky. Shame on you Amazon for making people pay over 60 bucks for this jack.
