Default Good Floor Jack ?

Anyone know of a good floor jack with lots of travel per cycle? These cheap ones are becoming very annoying with their "fraction of an inch" travel, which takes forever to get the car raised. Horsepower TV had a nice one, but $750 was more than I wanted to spend !!! Thanks!

I got a beauty from SAM's club for like $69.00

3.5 ton with a quick lift peddle and an adapter for SUV's. Mine is one of the nicest I have ever seen. Try any of the whole sale clubs like B.J's or SAMS. <img src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" border="0">

I got an AC/Delco floor jack from O'Reilly Auto Parts for about $80-$90. It is very heavy duty and works great.

Had a couple of those jacks from Sams. The quick-lift lasted about 6 months in my father-in-law's shop.
