I try not to buy too much from them because alot of it is junk but these jacks have held up well for me and they are low to the ground.

I found that with any standard non low profile jack I have to drive my car up on boards to get the jack under it. I just bought an AC Delco 2 ton jack kit with two jack stands from O'Reileys for 50 bucks. Can't hardly beat the price and it'll work for now.

That's the jack I have, I got the package with the stands. I like it alot. A little more pricey, but it's a nice aluminum jack. The picture on that page kinda sucks, but you can check it out in their catalog (if you want to wait for a huge download)

^^ if you need to jack your car immediately and you don't have a low profile jack, get a friend to grab the car by the fender and gently lift it, while you stick your factory jack under the body. always worked for me. good luck

I've had 2 sears jacks.. both went to crap on me within a couple years. Oddly the only Jack that has actually lasted is a cheap small jack I bought at Autozone in 1994. thing is beat to hell and keeps and going. Next Jack I buy is going to be a much more expensive and high quality one.
I also hate that as well. that is why I ended up making a nice wide pad for my old cheap small jack. Its nice also because this pad gives extra clearance as well as being large.
