ghostlyrich Posted October 18, 2013 Report Posted October 18, 2013 steel will be stronger and last long time. aluminum is easier to roll as its light but not as strong as steel My youtube channel https://www.youtube.com/user/ghostlyrich Mazda 3 2006 Build (R.I.P) http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/172728-mazda-3-2006-stealth-build/ Volkswagen GTI 2011 Build http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/192979-vw-gti-2011-build/ Jeep 2015 Build http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/201493-my-new-jeep-2015/

goldeneye4564 Posted October 18, 2013 Report Posted October 18, 2013 i would get the steel even though there is the possibility of rust. either way, make sure you use jack stands.

I don't think I understand what you are saying. If you had a 2 or 3 ton jack you could lift either side or end like you are saying... If you had a 6 ton you could lift the whole thing from the middle? ... theoretically yes.. reality? who lifts a whole vehicle in the middle with a floor jack lmao. that is what a hoist is for. just get a 3 ton and call it a dayyy. none of this 6 ton nonsense. it will take twice as long to pump up a 6 ton compared to the 3 ton.

Gingeriffik Posted October 18, 2013 Report Posted October 18, 2013 Harbor dosn't usually have the 6 anyway. I do like mine and lifts anyting with ease and does not take long at all to jack up. Plus, when I got mine, it was on special and was cheaper than the 3Ton they had, and had more lift, so it was a better buy at the time. <>< Collosians 2:13-14, Philippians 4:13, 1 John 4:7-10 2 - JBL W15Gti 2 - JBL BP1200.1 Knu 1/0 Wiring Kenwood KIV-BT901 Kenwood/Garmin Nav.
