This is an easy project that involves turning down one end of aluminum stock on a lathe and drilling a hole on the opposite end.
How to make floor jack higher.
Cdunn apr 16 16 at 3 58.
The maximum lifting capacity of this floor jack is an impressive 3 5 tons or 7000 lbs which is higher than most competing models of floor jack making it an ideal model to use for lifting trucks or other particularly heavy vehicles with ease.
They look great though.
This is how you jack up a car really high with a rapid pump jack.
So i decided to make a 3 5 extension to give it a little extra lift.
The way a diy 2 x 4 jack works is through the simple manipulation of leverage as the essential craftsman explains by taking advantage of the mechanical power that two slightly slanted edges can.
They can raise the car to an impressive height depending on the particular type of the floor jack.
Bigger jack stands is the way to go and will probably adjust higher than you can jack the car.
By lifting your vehicle high above the ground jacks allow you to be able to do necessary repairs and maintenance of the car.
I nearly fell out of the falcon when i saw the price tag on these.
I have this guy in carbonite in my basement i could sell him.
I bought a floor jack recently that advertises a 14 75 lift but it doesn t lift quite enough to fit my truck.
