Last Floor Jack Post

I have the 3 ton long reach low profile Daytona Jack for 2 years now. It can clear the front or rear easily on my Gen 2 for rotations. I only have a hockey puck on it. It seems well made, I don't need to use it too often. I had the HF bike lift for many years and used it A LOT, that held up well also.

Pro Eagle for $450 is definitely worth it! I have 2, the 2 ton Beast and the 3 ton Kratos. Both come with extensions if they're brand new like you said. It will also come with snap ring pliers to put the wheels on. Yes, the Beast lifts the Raptor off the ground. Get it!

Ok appreciate the post. Hope you are right.

This is not a knock on anyone. And I agree, if you can find a bargain, go for it. But when you, the royal you, spend $80k on a truck, at least when I do, I wouldn’t blink at spending a hundred or hun-fitty more to get the 3 ton.

I agree but I took a look and the 3 ton is a lot bigger and heavier. The 2 ton is the better choice for me to bring in the back for a surf trip and still be able to do basic maintenance to the truck at home. Bigger isn’t always better for floor jacks and the ability to get them into tight corners by the wheels is nice. I work on other vehicles for my friends too so the overall height and being able to get it under a car was part of my thought process also. I’ve got to be able to carry at least 4 surfboards and they only fit diagonally in the back.

I thought long and hard about the 3 ton but the 2 ton and my other 2 ton jack will cover everything I need.

I cut cost and bought that 3 ton Daytona. Used it twice over a year, then I noticed it was leaking oil. I got what I paid for.

This one looks interesting and the price is good.

For those who have the Pro Eagle, where is it manufactured?

I took a good long look at this one and then also the HF that comes out in December that was posted above. For me, thePro Eagle company HQ is located within 45 minutes of my house, so I figured if anything went wrong they would take care of me.

For me, $450 is the top for a jack that I use a few times each year. For someone more in the industry maybe the Pro Eagle is worth it but I couldn't justify $550-$700 w/tax on a jack. I'm happy I only paid the $450. The HF and CAT look to be just as good for the weekend warrior.
