@@tdtgarage1697 yeah I had initially bought a pair of US Jacks for $270 and with the HF Memorial Day 25% off I was able to get four 12 tons for $250. Definitely worth it IMO.
Hey i just got the daytona 3ton long reach like yours and a 6ton jack stand. Its a great jack 6 pumps had my intire rear of my mazda b2300 in the air about a inch above the pass height of the 6ton jack stands
@@tdtgarage1697 hey I don't know if you could help I just replaced my wheel brake cylinder because it was bad and leaking now my breaks are spongy again and the rear left wheel is starting to randomly lock up again what else could it be just did the master cylinder and brake booster it's a 94 with no abs and it's the old dash and body. But Also the jack is a big upgrade from the little 1.5 ton trolley jack I borrow from my grandpa
@@str8upn0l1fe6 definitely need to bleed your brake system and get the air out of the lines. Any time you open up your brake system, it needs to be done. That will fix the sponge. Lots of videos on how to do it. Not that hard. As for your wheel locking up. I would jack it up and see if you can see what ls going on to pin point the issue while spinning it by hand.
@tdtgarage1697 well that's the issue I bled all four my grandpa use to be a mechanic a while back then the new cars started with other thing and he quit
@@str8upn0l1fe6 only thing I can really think of is there is still a little air in the system.. sorry I’m not more help. On some of my stuff I’ve had to do it a couple times to get it right
I'm thinking about getting this stands, how long have you been using them, have they been good and would you recommend, I'd be using them for truck so def the 6ton
@@Fearsomex23 if the store is near by and you just recently bought it I would just return it for a replacement. Because it should lift right out of the box as long as you turn the handle I believe clockwise till it’s tight then pump the handle up and down
I noticed that is a Cadillac in the back. I have a 1965 four-door sedan. I have a flat tire but can’t get the car up high enough to take the tire off the rear. Got any suggestions.
If it has the rear skirts on it then you could Jack it up from the center of the rear end. Then put it on jack stands so you can get the skirts off and let the rear end hang freely to allow more room.
My car sits pretty low without airbags so when I try to jack it up it stops if I’m jacking up from the side or from jacking up from behind the same thing happens. If anybody knows a good mechanic to work on these cars let me know I’m located in Pomona California.
1 thing also,to get the 6 ton over the 3 ton is look at the legs on the 6/12 ton vs the 3 ton
6 ton are taller than you need for some cars. Theres a use for all sizes which is why they make various sizes.
Having all 3 is really good if you planning on top off the 6 ton better swap them with the 12 ton it be more steady I want a get a pair of 12 tons 😎😎
definitely buying 6 ton today before 25% off, been using the 3 ton but 6 ton ima have so much more room underneath
Absolutely! More room the better.
Just got the 3 ton jack stands the other day on sale for 27 bucks lol, and they are tall enough to sit my dakota on for now
Can’t beat that price!! They really are a good stand.
doing an entire drivetrain swap in my garage so I picked two sets of these up. definitely overkill but the extra space should make it loads easier.
Very smart move. I have a swap I’m doing currently, and as much room as you can get is worth it!

I got this Javk on Monday but it was the 3 ton low profile long reach, it's 239 but I got it for 139 🤣

I would definitely recommend. I’ve used them a lot. No complaints 😬
@@tdtgarage1697 cool, thanks!
Do you have to buy the hydraulic oil, or does it come with inside already?
They should all come pre filled. But it wouldn’t hurt to check.
@@tdtgarage1697 okay thanks I got one but its not lifting

@@marrd9125 if you watch my video on how to bag a caddy you can see how I had my car jacked up. Jack stands on the frame. Sorry I’m not more help.
Thanks
considering 12 ton.
do you have to max out that daytona jack to get those 12 ton stands to fit under a car?
That’s a good question. No it doesn’t need to be max out. But if you needed the highest setting on the stand it might become a issue.
If you are needing to use 12 ton Jack stands most likely a 3 ton jack isn’t going to cut it anyway
Must not have heard about all the jack stand recalls out of Harbor Freight

Yep
Daytona makes them. Harbor Freight sells them. Why do you act like Harbor Freight is the one making them? It’s a Daytona brand for a reason
