Unboxing & Review of Daytona 3-ton Floor Jack from Harbor Freight

I picked up this Daytona 3-ton Floor Jack from Harbor Freight. I wanted a floor jack that is sturdy, durable and has a low profile, but lifts high enough. The fact that it has a rapid pump mechanism is a bonus. The beautiful green color is also a bonus. Watch as I unbox this puppy and do a quick review. This is one of the items from Harbor Freight that I can recommend.
Project Farm put a few floor jacks through their paces and Daytona came out smelling good!

I had trouble releasing the plastic shipping lock piece.
It was not as easy as the one in this vid.
If anyone has this issue, try flicking it up and out using a screwdriver…quick and easy.
My jack was probably a dud.

Thanks for that tip Summer! 👊

[@Pen_Pusher]

Thanks for the encouragement!

[@KraftyKris10]

Thank you that back screw was all I needed to know

[@Pen_Pusher]

You're welcome!

The 3 ton Super duty is actually the one same in the same factory as snap on im pretty sure this daytona and the 3 ton low profile pittsburgh is almost the same exactly the same

[@Pen_Pusher]

Yeah, that's interesting!

[@swishmade_it]

That’s true, it’s a snap on jack rebranded

[@Pen_Pusher]

@@swishmade_it Now I wish I got the super duty one!

[@swishmade_it]

@@Pen_Pusher basically all the daytona jacks are that way. Not just the super duty

[@everybodycamps5374]

Thanks brother.

[@Pen_Pusher]

You're welcome! I have enjoyed using this jack. It is not bad!

[@juangarza31]

What is the black top part where the vehicle sits called? I removed mine and lost it

[@SummerEaze]

“Floor jack rubber pad”

[@KraftyKris10]

Mine too!!

[@37Clank]

Does anyone know what the difference is between this one and the 3 ton low profile Pittsburgh? Besides the price that is.

[@Pen_Pusher]

Yes, I would like to hear if anyone knows. :)

[@prebaned]

​@Pen_Pusher Pittsburgh has flat non beveled rear wheels, no real wheel support wing plate, C-channel frame bottom and top narrower, no saddle pad, fluid needs to be topped of and bleed, welds not great, bottom tie cross plate narrower, lighter by 10lbs for a reason, etc.. to name a few. Get the Daytona.

[@Pen_Pusher]

@@prebaned Thanks. That is very helpful!

[@KraftyKris10]

Mine doesn’t have that black piece that holds it up. Mine is more indented in. Maybe I’m missing a rubber piece? Anyone know?

[@Pen_Pusher]

Yes, there should be a rubber pad that sits on top of the saddle of the jack.

[@KraftyKris10]

Yeah I found one on Amazon I’ll probably get.

[@KraftyKris10]

Is there anyway you could tell me the shape of the pad there?

[@Pen_Pusher]

@@KraftyKris10 It fits exactly the shape of the saddle. I am sure if you ask Harbor Freight they will have one for you.

[@Victor-vz2qu]

Thanks!! Helped me a lot... The user manual is crap...

[@Pen_Pusher]

You're welcome!

[@MrSamBowers]

You need to grease it.

[@Pen_Pusher]

Thank you Sam!
