This. Big time. I don't get anything from HF without it being on sale, plus a %off coupon, plus the coupon for the "Free thing" (flashlight or gloves usually).

Hi,
I will be going under to see if I can fix the snapped out front shift rod ball cup. I have a 86.5 but I do not have the liftbars. May I ask anyone to circle all the alternative jack points on the attached picture as I will be using the factory jack points for the jack stands? Picture courtesy of 77Tony.
Thanks,
Steve

Here's where I do it if I don't have liftbars available.

Chock the rear wheels and make sure handbrake is on
Jack up each front and place jackstand under the jack point.
Jack up the rear by the crossmember, and place jackstands under each point.

But that is not the price for the 3 ton aluminum one? I have only seen that go down to $150ish.

I have this jack: http://www.harborfreight.com/2-ton-l...ump-68050.html

I love it but it is heavy and a pain in the a$$ to move. Love how low it is and it can jack up to 23 3/4" high.

I have the same jack and concur on all accounts.

Great jack but a pain to move.

Well worth it though.
