When you’re underneath a 2-ton vehicle, the last thing you want to think about is if your floor jack and jack stands are up to the task. I’ve found some great labor day deals on floor jacks, stands, and even lifts from all over the Internet to help you get your car up and keep it secured all throughout the holiday weekend.
My first floor jack was a Craftsman and it lasted a decade. It may still be working great for the guy who borrowed it. This Craftsman 3-ton steel jack and stands kit for $159.00 is great as a starter kit or even to replace your worn-out jack. If you’re looking to upgrade your jack stands, I like this ESCO 3-ton steel pin-style stand set for $129.95 from Lowe’s. If you want something similar, but lighter, this Torin 3-ton capacity aluminum jack stand set for $81.09 seems like an even better deal.
The dream setup for most home mechanics is to have an actual lift. Buying a Titan 9,000 pound 2-post lift for $2,779.00 will make you the envy of all your car enthusiast friends. It’ll also make your life a lot easier. I wish I had space in my garage for a lift, but low ceilings and a tall car aren’t a good match.
