“It’s your life under there.” First rule of mechanic work I learned was to use jack stands. Second rule was to shake the car to make sure it’s stable. Always make sure the car is safe and stable before working on anything on a lifted car.
Third rule, send the new guy under first.
The Den of Tools all too true. 😂
Key word "stable"
Damn it’s crazy to see the price differences from just 2 years ago
i was saying the same!!!
Thanks Joe Biden
Bought to go to HF right now. Hopefully they haven't gone too crazy.
It's wild these same jacks are over $200 now
I bought the DJ3000MR for $300 after taxes.
"It's your life under there?" Yeah, not even the best jack is going to be safer than stands!
But stands don't lift it...?
@@b.a.goodman5207 You don't get underneath it to lift it. The jack lifts, the stands keep you from getting squished.
My thoughts exactly.. never trust your life to any Jack
@@b.a.goodman5207 yes you need a jack, and harbor freight Jack's are known for being just as good. Just go read the review for the item number, for the love of God don't pay 1000$ for a jack. Keep away from the scissor jacks and the cheap hydrologic jack, they are junk. They are made with very thin metal.. But the Daytona brands are kick ass and Pittsburg brand aren't bad for the price. Now some of there hand tools are cheap, but the Pittsburg jacks are on par with the mid range jacks..
two stands 2 tires and the hydraulic jack or I'm not going down there.
Guilty pleasure here, watching a cartoon bear talk about jacks while confined to my house. Life is nice. Shine on bear, this home stuff is a lot nicer knowing you're still making these!
Only in America 🤟, stay safe
After viewing no less than 10 Daytona jack videos and reading a few of the comparison reviews, I realize that this video is not only the best analytical analysis, but it is comprehensive and most informative. It is because of this video that I am able to confidently select and purchase the best Daytona jack for me. I was stuck on the DS300LR with the foot pedal vs the DJ3000 Super Duty model. One thing to observe is that Harbor Freight is not stupid...they are constantly raising the prices on ALL of their jacks.
no its not there is a guy who actuallt tested them with a press and all
So which one did you get?
I'm in the same boat,
I like the quick lever but that's one more thing to go wrong. 🤔
Due to the Coronavirus I’m watching a cartoon bear. Remember, always use jack stands once you get vehicle lifted. Keep the floor jack in place with the jack stands for safety.
Knew someone who body wasn't found til two days under a car after the floor jack slipped
They have 3 jack stands on recall
Just dont use the recalled jackstands...
@Gus Goose i chock the ones in the air...
And then put your wheels underneath the frame where it would lay on top if the wheels of all else failed. Even more safety for you that takes 5 seconds
They changed the color of the jack to red so they could justify a price increase. Nice.
That could be a little paranoid. If you take a business class you'd know that it can a couple of reasons for price change. Supply and demand, cost of making the jack went, etc... Use logic plz.
@@nickd920 If you didn't bother taking business classes that point out obvious things, you'd see a meme relating to fap-off tools, known for being both red and over priced.
dansrepairs 🤣😆😂
Red means it's faster.
@@I5ZQ8 I heard the red Jack can do 0 to 60 in 4.5 seconds
We use the Daytona yellow heavy duty jacks in my shop, they roll phenomenally, and have so far outlasted some of my American Forge Foundry jacks. Highly recommend
Well yeah. Those are the most expensive ones and the Snap-On clone. They also have a 3 year warranty unlike the 90 day on their other jacks. Even Harbor Freight expects it to last.
@@xex2kok Not a clone. It is the Snap On jack. Same factory and manufacturer. Just a different sticker put on it at the end of the assembly line.
@@saltysteel3996 Maybe your morals are different and allow you to steal things and call them your own but not me lol. This is 100% not the same product and if you think it is you are a piece of human garbage. Good day sir! :)
@@xex2kok In all technicality it is the same though. It's made at the same factory and with the same parts numbers. They're simply buying from the OE and labeling it differently. It's like with car parts that have a company's branding on them while they're actually made from Bosche, Phillips, Denso, Pierburg, etc. From exactly the same place, part number, and material, just different branding.
How high does it jack?
Not going to lie, I now work for Harbor Freight and your videos are very helpful and informative, makes it easy to translate product specs to customers. Not to mention I find out stuff in the den before we do at work at times.
THANKS TO THE TALKING BEAR....
This site makes it enjoyable to listen. A combination of a cartoon bear character with the right voice, sense of humor and (key point), knowledge. We can all learn something from this bear.....and save money too!
Great video Bear! This kind of in-depth content is why I subscribed years ago. I know it takes a lot of time researching and preparing for these and I thank you for every minute.
i work at harbor freight idk why im watching this LOL
hahahahaha
Can swap wheels if I wanted a green one? #ifuknowuknow
@Chris E. 12 an hr* I work there as well
Chris E. You’re wife says lol when texting your neighbor about what time you go to work so he can come on over handle the business that you can’t. #BENICE
Scotty Kilmer says your jacks are not that great. Is he wrong?
6:31 - If you buy one of these jacks I recommend disassembling the roller at the front and greasing the axle. It's steel on steel with little to no lubricant, so quickly turns to rust.
Thank you for posting this and explaining everything. I was looking at a Pittsburgh and had no idea about the other brands next to it. You've really helped me make my decision.
"Racing jacks. I don't know what fools are out there racing their jacks, but they like to do it." That got a laugh out of me.
Uh, sure...
It is getting worse, stupid jokes + the pandemic.
Former Hf employee here. The small red steel jack and 1.5 ton racing jack are actually kinda designed for similar purposes, which most people use for keeping in a car or jeep for offroad. Also the low profile is only ten dollars more but it's so much better then the regular
I have the long reach/low profile Daytona and absolutely love it. It's a must for working on sports cars with low ground clearance. It goes on sale a few times a year. I bought mine last November for about $169 if I recall. Worth every penny.
Ill be looking out for that 169 price. Thanks!
That's what I just picked mine up for! Great deal!!
I own the Pittsburgh 1.5 ton aluminum race jack myself. It gets "light" use at the home garage for basic repairs on my own vehicles. I got it because its light weight, easy portability, and the handle really does come in handy. LOL No issues so far. I would recommend it for quick lifting but I always use jack stands if its being held up for prolonged periods of time. Which everyone should do.
Never have I subscribed so quick after watching a video. This is EXACTLY the info I was looking for, and it was delivered promptly without mindless rambling. THANK YOU!
3:44 the best coupon price is $0.02 more than the regular price
As a young boy, I listened to everything that talking bears had to say to me... and now nearing retirement, I believe everything and anything talking bears tell me....
Lots of birthday parties at Showbiz and Chuck E. Cheese?
I feel like an idiot listening to an animated bear.
Yeah, becuase listening to real bears would make you seem so much smarter.
@@denoftools 🤣
Hey boo-boo, help me steal that there pic-a-nic basket!
But what about the ranger, Yogi?
Lol
@@denoftools LMAO !
12:25 On a side note... Back in the steam locomotive days, when most of the engines were black, the samples used for photographs were painted grey too. It's become a thing in the model railroading community for manufacturers to offer models in their photographic grey livery.
It's scary how the prices are all 3x higher.
I took that cheapo one, (your "not my favorite jack,") back to the store & said I either needed to destroy it or exchange it.
Okay, it's been 4 years, but "jack racing".... that was hilarious! If I get one, I'll let you know how fast it goes. I just want to change my oil. I'm thinking instead of jacking my car up, then getting jack stands, I can just get a pair of ramps for half the cost. I change oil more than I change tires, so it makes more sense.
I was impressed that you knew the black jack that was really gray is really black and only looks gray so it doesn't look black. You are clearly a jack expert to know that it looks different in the picture as it does in person and able to explain why. That is fascinating.
I was having fun with the bear. You know, when he disappeared, I still envisioned him as the one who was still talking (it's the first of your videos I've ever seen). So to me, the bear was off to the side somewhere and still talking to me about these jacks. Each time the jack changed, I figured the bear was clicking to the next jack and then talking about that one. Each time I was thinking, "that is one smart bear".
Then I was thinking about the bear actually using these jacks because he knows so much about them, then thought, how is he going to get under there? Then I realized he wouldn't fit under my car and probably only does trucks. Now I'm laughing at myself. Most people would be embarrassed to admit that, but not me.
I purchased a 2 ton Pittsburgh low profile today. I just need it for occasional oil changes/tire rotations on my challenger. I don’t necessarily need it to last for thousands of lift cycles and I have jack stands to use with it so I think based on my research that this one should be good. Good video 👍
I have used the 3 ton aluminum racing jack for about 6 years I believe. It works great and considering I’ve used it outside in rain, dirt, mud you name it and it keeps going it just speaks for it self. Recently I just got my own garage and purchased the low profile long reach in green. The jack is awesome! I will be purchasing a 2nd one here in the next few days for that added height. Absolutely love the green one!!
I wanted the low profile high lift jack in black, really badly. Of course when I got there, black was the only color they were out of, so I got orange. It works just as well, obviously, but I had wanted to put "21" stickers on my blackjack.
Great comprehensive vid, I really like the long reach model as well with the additional lift height, I have an Arcan that I bought from Costco years ago and it's a quality jack as well. My understanding was the Daytona long reach jack can be fully extended with the foot pump, that would be a huge advantage when working in tighter quarters like a crammed garage. Not a big fan of Harbor Freight's anemic 90 day warranty on many costly items.
I take issue with the 90 day warranty as well and I’m contemplating buying the two year warranty for $52 but my wife is not pleased about me spending $220 for the long reach low profile model after coupon.
So I’m sitting here cruising through YT and I come across this video and I lose it because I’m high to start with and it’s a freaking bear on there talking floor jacks. .LMAO😂😂😂
Brand spanking new HF near me, no longer a. 2hr drive to get to one. I spent 20 mins looking at jacks. Must've been spying on me. Lol
Your phone knows what you are doing.
Great job and fantastic information...Thanks for all the work and study it takes to put out these great videos.
3:42 Wait, the low profile jack is $79.97 regular price, but $79.99 with Best Coupon? 😜
.97 is a clearance price. You probably won't even be able to find it.
I caught the 3 ton silver low profile for $69.99, but it got stolen... red one is $99.99 on best sale...
I’ve got the 1.5 ton jack in my Jeep for when I go off roading alittle block of woods and it’s worked great
Paid $200 for the 3-ton low-pro long reach. No regrets.
Cool lm about to open mine
That $30 2-ton trolley jack is MARVELOUS for wheel service. Far safer than scissor jack, doesn’t get stuck like the bottle jack, the detachable handle is perfect for moving it. I keep mine behind the passenger seat stored in its box sideways and it has helped me far too many times when I come across people with car trouble. Add a jack frame adapter, which looks like a hockey puck with a slot, and it can be used for shallow frame lifting as well. I own other jacks, but this one travels with me everywhere.
I stole my current jack from Harbor Freight on Black Friday for $42. It’s the 3-ton low profile Pittsburgh. Awesome jack, just doesn’t lift high enough to fully use my 24” jack stands. Can be made even more versatile with the crossbar adapter that I also own.
I am with you, going to get that long reach Daytona and finally have full use of my jack stands.
Very helpful video tool bear! Definitely gonna pick up that low pro long reach for working on side by sides at work.
Went and got the orange 3 ton low pro long reach today and used it for my tahoe brake job!! Bad ass unit!! Thanks for the reassurance on something I’ve wanted for a couple weeks now!! Just wish I would have used that coupon while i could!!
Any issues with yours after 4 years? I just bought mine yesterday and contemplating buying the warranty.
No issues and use it a lot
I have the Daytona low profile 3 ton one (specifically orange) and it’s been a great jack. I had an old expired coupon that brought it down to $110 and they let me use it. I’ve had it almost a year now. Works perfect for me.
Towards the end of last year I found a coupon for the Daytona 3ton extended reach/low profile. I think the price was $189.99? But I sprung for the extended warranty and ended up paying about $215-220 (I don't remember). I have only used it a handful of times but have no issues with it. I probably should have skipped the extended warranty tho. I agree with what you said, Details matter! Also the coupon I used was only good for the orange, black, or yellow I believe. Weird. I got orange.
Bought the blue 24". w/foot pedal. Another good thing about that pedal is, if you don't have room to swing the handle, you can jack up a wheel, for changing a tire with the foot pump
I bought the green Daytona 3 ton, low profile, and I thought it was... fair? I mean, it was only $110 but it has a bit of trouble lifting a 2005 Honda Odyssey. Doesn't feel all that strong, TBH.
That foot pump feature on the long reach is nice.
Some of us with really low cars struggle when we have to slide the jack all the way under to reach a certain jack point. I’ve broken a few screwdrivers trying to jack the car up enough to get the lower portion of the handle in lol
I'm all jacked up about this HF floor jack vid.
I picked up one of the blue long reach low profile ones because of this video. I am amazed at the quality of it. Thank you for the informative video!
I just bought mine yesterday and I’m trying to decide if I should buy the two year warranty for $52. How’s yours holding up so far after three years?
I've been pretty happy with my 3 ton aluminum racing jack, too be honest.
Been pretty handy for putting my travel trailer on blocks while it's being stored.
I realize this is an older post... but more relevant now than ever. Thanks for the explanations and the bear might just be my new best friend.... well done !
Never seen this channel before and I thought the bear guy was awesome! I was expecting a normal shop guy... and got a BEAR!
I bought a three (3) ton floor jack ten (10) years ago for my home shop. I paid 50.00 Usd for. It is still working. I have been eyeballing the aluminum jacks. They look really good. I am getting older.
I purchased my long reach last weekend. I didn't really need one, since my 3 ton gray Pittsburgh is perfectly well in working order. I just wanted to go up just that little bit more with my cars. I did use the $20 off . But like you said, i was not able to use the other $10 off coupon. I may post pic of it lifting my F150 with no problem. It gave me 14" clearance from the bottom of my 18" tire to the ground. Plenty if i say so.
I almost died laughing on the comment (I don't know what fool is out there racing his jack) funny lol
I was looking at the race jack, but the trolley jack is 1000# stronger, 13# lighter, and $50 cheaper. I think it's the better option for someone looking for a jack to bring to track days and autocross. I've also seen a lot of reliability issues with the race jack with hydraulic failures and screws falling out.
Hands down the most thorough low-down on Harbor Freight floor jacks.
This video really help me decide which one to buy. Thank You.
I really needed this video to help clear some things up. Your pick is the one my buddy was recommending most, but I wasn't certain.
Something else I think might be going on: These are all so similar in spec, someone like me who may not know what they're looking at may see a coupon for one of the regular 3-ton Daytona jacks and think it's a steal when it's not.
I just stumbled upon the bear. This is brilliant lol. Voice goes perfectly with the bear
The small trolley is good to throw in the car or truck for side if road. To make it quicker then the screw jack. The bigger jack are good for at home or shop every day use.
My dad had one he kept in his truck just for that purpose, the only issue was it would bleed off and you’d have to jack it back up a few pumps every few minutes.
The trolley jack sucks / break fast , save your money
@@eizzle78 I'm glad I wasn't the only one. My shitty HF trolley jack started to leak, and so I replaced it with a Wal-mart brand trolley jack.
Jackie chan_WTF a bottle jack is much better for an emergency tire change than those stupid little jacks. Even scissor jacks are better.
Every one of those little jacks have broken after a few uses.
I bought the Pittsburgh 3 ton low profile back in 2010. I beat the hell out of it for work everyday and it won't quit. I also have the 1.5t racing aluminium but I only use that to support engines/transmissions when unbolting motor mounts.
I drove 2h from canada to get the 3 ton Low profile black Daytona Jack lol and I love it
I bought the aluminum 2.5 ton floor jack for the sole purpose of its light weight. 😁👍
Thanks for clarifying! Very informative video!
I got my yellow Daytona floor jack on March 21st 2020 for $174.99 I’ve been wanting that jack for years, and the $174.99 was the best price I’ve ever seen, thanks Bear for all you do, keep Momma Bear and the cubs safe durning this time of crazy
I got mine on sale for $179 in 2017, so $175 in 2020 is a very good price.
Now its 270?
That was super helpful, thanks. My crappy little Craftsman floor jack that was fine when I was driving a first-gen RX7 is scarily at the edge of its abilities trying to lift one end of my Outback for the seasonal wheel swap. I've been looking at the HF jacks but they don't make it easy to compare.
How prices have skyrocketed. I bought the 3-ton Low-Profile jack for $119 over this past sale... Normal price used to be $109 and Super Coupon price of $98... The $21 price difference isn't gonna kill me, but now full price is $160 for the 3-ton Red Low-Profile Jack. So in 3-years they increased the price of the same jack by $50 almost 50%. This is absolutely insane. I'm glad I at least bought my Daytona Jack Stands for $29 for a set of two.
This needed to be told. Thank you.
I had to start searching for harbor freight stuff to find your channel so much info!! Subbed
Welcome aboard!
I bought the super duty for a couple of reasons.
1) I compared the Pittsburgh (back before the Series 2 came out) to the Daytona right next to it. The welds and finish were night and day.
2) The super duty happened to be on sale for less than the regular price of the low-profile long reach Daytona, which they didn't have in stock yet.
Haven't been disappointed in my choice.
That trailer dolly is awesome! It works extremely well, even going across relatively packed down dirt and grass.
i have the green long reach low profile, i got a part time job there to get discounts on tools. I paid about 140$ for it with a coupon and my employee discount
all i can say is thank you for this awesome analysis of all of these harbor freight jacks that i was totally balled up in my underwear trying to make some sense of them. what they are doing is the old marketing strategy of dividing and confusing the customer so they buy what the company says is your best deal and to say the least; i was confused. you pointed out so many critical factors such as the added wing weld and the curvature of the wheels that i had never even thought of. being an old very amateurish gearhead i thought i was somewhat well-versed when it came to jacks, but you really gave me a much-needed short course on the realities of hydraulic jacks. keep up the great work for your very appreciative viewers!!!
I recently bought the Low Profile, Long reach jack and I absolutely love it. I needed it for the lift and I haven't found another jack from any manufacturer that lifts over 2 feet up. The foot pump also makes lifting smaller cars simple. Most times I dont even use the handle.
Still good?
@@armandol1826 Yes. Its been a great jack for over 2 years now.
I have the Pittsburgh 1.5 and red 3.0 "big red" both work incredibly well but always use jack stands. Always.
It could save your life one day 🤔
I used the red 3 ton a few days ago to lift my 2000 chevy silverado v8 4×4 crew cab it worked fine and felt pretty stable but i still put a few jack stands under it before doing any work just in case 👍
I have the low profile long reach 3-ton. Does great on my lowered miata and on my lifted 79 f150.
Awesome man! I have a 78 F150
I have the Pittsburgh low pro long reach grey and it has that same foot pump had it for a few years I love it
You are correct the Daytona Jacks are the most awesomest Jacks.
I have the orange low profile Long Reach , and I'm sure it will last a hundred years.
I think the best upgrade that you didn't mention was the CV type joint, that connects the handle is the body of the jack to release the pressure , or lock the valve for lifting. A great improvement over the two wheels with teeth, the ended up stripping.
Harbor Freight the number one seller of jacks in the world
I have a Pittsburgh branded jack from hf that is similar to the blue long reach low profile Daytona. It served me well for about 10yrs now. I think I picked it up for around $140 with coupon. Back then the 20% coupon had way less restrictions.
thanks for the video... I need to get two new 3.5 ton jacks because 2 of my old napa jacks have walked away... thanks for the info very informative.
I bought the Daytona professional yellow jack because it was built at the same factory as snap on and has 3 year warranty
There was a great sale on a Daytona green low profile Jack, in which I will say, I bought four months ago on a great deal, saved myself $40, and I just cracked it open yesterday, and I was so impressed with it, I bought it specifically since I had two sports cars that are low to the ground, and it cleared it no problem, and the thing that I like the most about it, it's the foot pedal. Two pumps, and I got it under the crossmember, and it was only 5 to 7 pumps to get up to the height that I wanted to, which raised the wheels up by about 5 in, and it was a hot day too, and I didn't even sweat like I normally would with my other Jack, which I am sad to say, I owned an Amazon basic 2 ton jack that cost me approximately $80 with two jack stands, and I have to put my car on a curb or ramp just to get underneath, which kind of defeats the purpose. For context, I have a 2006 Nissan 350Z and a 2015 Dodge Charger
I prefer the yellow Daytona over the $100 jacks because of the larger saddle pad.
Harbor freights sells the pads.
They also have greasable wheels where the others don't.
I have that yellow jack and its a beast.
Just like your mother;)
I've wondered about all their hacks before. Thanks for clearing that up Mr Bear.
Can you take a look at the pneumatic hose reels? The hose cost doesn't account for the price jumps, and the reels look to be nearly identical. Where does the $100 price jump come from?
I have kept a HF 3 ton floor jack in the back of my F-250 for a couple years now. Have used it a couple times and it works good. I think it weighs about 73-ish lbs.
Went to sears and copped a 3 ton jack and jack stands AND a creeper craftsman set for $160 and it’s one of the best jacks I’ve had
Like many other items in our country, the prices are up 200-300% in the last year or so. It's that, um, 8% inflation you read about.
I bought the aluminum racing 2.5 ton jack. So far I’ve been liking it. It can jack up my fiero and lowered mustang no problem. It feels like a nicer jack. The 2.5 ton jack has a 1 year warranty.
I’ve had the one at 7:40 for 5-7 years and it’s worked great.
Scissors jacks... I have over a dozen. They're very hand for everything but lifting an auto... They're great for wedging a board up in a doorway to keep a Visqueen (construction sheet plastic) barrier so drywall dust doesn't contamination the whole house. The jacks can be used during welding or house framing to motivate things to line up correctly before final anchoring.
Seriously, anyone doing big things around the house needs at least three or four of these at-the-ready.
But, visit the local auto salvage yard to obtain them... ~$5.00 each.
Great video, thanks for sharing!!!
Thanks for breaking these down. Just discovered HF and I'm in love 😘. Other than lifting cars and trucks...any other ingenious uses for these jacks?
Aluminum can definitely compete with steel, but it all depends on a number of factors. In general, for a high-grade aluminum alloy, the tensile strength is very very close to a lot of steels (better than mild steel, for sure). The big differences I would worry about in a jack are: (a) quality of the aluminum alloy and (b) durability. Aluminum fatigues a lot more than steel. So if you are going to put it through a lot of repetitive use, I'd take the steel all day long. If you are only using it every so often, then save the weight and get the aluminum, IMO.
I’ve got the rapid low profile jack. I was looking at the new one you mentioned liked the way it looks.
That little foot pedal used to be on the gray harbor freight Pittsburgh jacks at around the $100 price point. I wish I still had mine, one of the best jacks for home use. The stuff they got now just does not compete.
i bought the red trolley jack to keep in the back of my suv as it didn’t have a jack and i needed one. i was gonna get a bottle jack for portability but this one, so far, seems fine for just that. putting on your spare if you habe to, as well as coming in handy for lifting things or doing something like holding your exhaust to put it on etc. do not recommend it for normal use. those 3 ton low pros and 1.5 ton aluminums for the win. bottle jack and trolley just for supporting parts/spare tire install :)
This video was really helpful. I have a scion XB I want to work on but I'm a fat dude and not a mechanic build. A 2 ton jack is plenty of lifting power but that 24 in max lift height has me contemplating the one you suggested. 2 ton jacks don't get that high. Max height was not something I was considering until this video.
I have the 3 ton Pittsburgh Pro low profile Grey Jack. I use a hockey puck to put in the saddle. Works great!
The pad comes with the Daytona jacks. I just bought the long reach 3 ton. A bit overkill for a Rav4, but that foot pump is awesome. They should put that on the $139 jack or the yellow jack.
Thanks for sorting that all out. I would just kinda glaze over when looking at the jacks in the monthly catalog. Stay well , stay safe. Hopefully bears are immune. Wish we all were.
I own both the 1.5 ton racing jack and the 3 ton lo-pro long reach. It feels like a "lifetime" combo. I have not run into a job I couldn't do with these.
I've had the original 3 ton and the matching larger stands now for about 6 years .... no complaints at all and I've put some very large 1 ton and 3/4 ton trucks in the air with them ....
my 3 ton craftsman floor jack is 49 years old and working fine. It sits outside all year round, buried under the snow. I am getting a little nervous when I go under a suv with it. If I leave my jeep on it all night long, it doesn't drop an inch.
