Which bottle jack lift pads?

[MikekiM]

I've had the Safe Jack Starter Pack in the cart for a while, but just can't mash that checkout button.
Don't really want or need the flat pad

But I do want and need the extension safety collar.

Either way, three pieces.. $110.
Any alternative manufacturers I should/could consider?
Would love to be able to weld well enough to make these myself. I wanted to be an orthopedic trauma surgeon too...

 

[MikekiM]

Only viable alternative I've found so far is the 911Motorsports jack extension (basically a piece of tube to weld to the jack), extension and lift plate for $50.
Not crazy about welding the tube to my bottle jack.

Would be great if the collar from Safe Jack fit in the lift plate and extension from 911Motorsports.

Are you custom making your own tubing now, Mac? That’s hard core fabbin’.

Not really.

There is this copykat Safe Jack kit on Ebay, but I wouldn't buy it.

Best to have the collar when using the accessories.

Over priced for what it is:

Agreed. Overpriced - and completely unstable...

 

[NashvilleTJ]

I shoulda come up with a cool name for mine. Perhaps "NashvilleTJ's Jackin' Buddy."

Edit: Wait, perhaps that's not the best name...

Lord if he had a stroker in his Jeep the fun we could have!!!!!!

I haven't found it to be so. It doesn't really add any height, just a round top that fits axles a bit better.

I certainly would not use the extension tube without the collar.

Came across that one too.

Yeah.. probably better to think another name...


So should I just buy the Safe Jack stuff and be done with it?

Or does anyone want to make one for me?

 

[Mr. Bills]

Do you need the product?

Can you afford it?

If so, buy it.

If not, don't.

Simple.

Wait, is his hemi stroked to get to 392ci.....?

 

[Rickyd]

Do you need the product?

Can you afford it?

If so, buy it.

If not, don't.

Simple.

You didn't say whether the answers to both questions needed to be yes.
The answer is routinely no to both questions and we still buy stuff.

 

[MikekiM]

If not, don't.

Simple.

Roger that...
Answers.. Maybe & Of course.

I need A product.
Not sure whether I need THE product.


Or, whether there is a better option to consider.

Not really.

@NashvilleTJ, may not be the best name but I am definitely seeing a trend...
