I want to know how high it will jack? I have a 2004 Chevy Tahoe and I want to know if it will jack it up WITHOUT having to use wood under the jack?

no it does not , it lifts only about two inches , biggest crap I have ever purchased

jack works fine, but always use jack stands if crawling under suv, sometimes jack stand needed to relocate jack forbetter sturdy lift point.

you will need wood but if its on sale and you just want to save a buck it works. It's more of a comes in handy when you don't have a helper kind of jack, in random situations not so efficient for automobile work imho...but with some wood it'll do the job.

it worked great but whatever you do, block whatever your lifting. My trailer moved just a little and it fell off the jack. The jack was totally destroyed, as a result of twisting as it fell. I can send a picture of the damage, if you want me to. I'm very handy but could find no way to fix it. Having said that though, I still bought a replacement. I'm 76 years old and it sure make jacking things up EASY !!! I can e-mail a picture if you e-mail me at hank-g1@hotmail.com

I'm not home to measure my trailer right now, but I believe it the same as yours. It is a standard jet ski trailer made with square steel tubing. The bracket for the jack does allow for some variation on height since it uses four bolts (two on top and two on bottom) that basically sandwich the jack to the frame. I think you will be fine. PS - this is very nice jack. -Mike

The jack is exactly 4" high, so it should work, as long as you can get the slot on the top of the jack lift pad to line up with any lip on the car's undercarrige.

I have the Michelin 3-1/2 ton floor jack .. the blue one .. it's saddle stud hole is about 1-1/4" .. removed the saddle, mounted the adapter with the 1-1/8" bushing, positioned it under the rail and lifted the car. It worked perfectly.

Probably not, and still have enough height to lift the vehicle off the ground. I have a Dodge Charger, and the first few inches of lift are used up in suspension travel before the tire even starts to leave the ground. Then when I have the tire a couple of inches off the ground, most of the height of the jack is used up. You may have to use a 2x4 under the jack for added lift.

I don't recommend it. The only way I was able to lift the front end of my '04 Accord up high enough to get jack stands under it was by awkwardly lifting each side at the front subframe. This jack just doesn't go high enough to be of much use. It's also really bad quality. I would get a decent floor jack to lift the car, and then of course put jack stands under the reinforced lift points.

These jacks are primarily for stabilizing trailers. They do not " jack up" (or down), but rather, their movement is accomplished by turning the screw. I hope I've given you a proper description from which to determine their suitability for your specific need.

Ssouldn't be a problem.I put htis jack on a 26 foot enclosed car trailer that i haul a race car,golf cart,tool box full of tools,generator,gas cans and other items and it lifts the trailer loaded like this with no problem.The only complaint i have with the jack is it didn't come with a manual jack handle and all the other places i saw the jack it said it came with a handle.Coy C

it depends on what type of trailer you have. some trailers sit higher than others. it also depends on what type of ground level you are on, so the jacks will be leveled differently.you donot want to over extend the jacks . they cannot give you great stability fully extended. ,use blocks to give you better stability and this will be much easier to level out.

The jack lowest setting is 4in. and yes it has a greased shaft to raise the jack. It even includes the wrench to turn the jack to raise.

Hi Susan. I suspect it would work as an aftermarket jack provided it is located under a frame member and is rated to support the weight.

Camper is in storage so can't easily measure. It has a low profile relative to the post (it doesn't stick out a lot). One thing I liked about this jack was that I can open my pickup tailgate when the camper is hooked up, there is plenty of clearance. Hope that helps

I would not advise it. For higher and heavier SUVs, this jack will be insufficient. The Grand Cherokee is fairly high (>8 inches ground clearance), and probably over weight spec as well. Maybe try the 3 Ton SUV version - Torin T83006 3 Ton SUV Service Jack

I have not used mine yet. It is not going to fit my current floor jack, so I will probably by a cheap jack at Harbor Freight when I need to use it. It looks like it just slips into the center hole of the jack. Sorry not much help.

I put it on a 2000 Silverado reg cab. best bet would be to download both installation instructions and compare them. I believe they are on permance's website.I used two jacks and two pieces of 2x4. Did it by myself just took a little longer.

Just a note to everyone, I did try pushing it in surprisingly hard last night and it DID work.Please give your jack another try. What's the worst that could happen? Just push it in HARD until it's flush.
