I wanted to move my stang, and I probably could have used my floor jack, but I bought these tirle lifts from Harborfreight locally. On their website they are listed for 129.95(why don't they just say 130.oo?, like buying a car, 29,995.99? give me a break!) anyway, I got to my local store and the guy said, oh yeah, we have 'em, 169.95! "What!" your internet said 129.95! He says, "OK". no argument, didn't even check out the internet price! I should have said 99.00? lol Anyway, the jacks work great! but you need a clean smooth floor, and you really need your tie rods attached to the wheels won't turn. Anyway, another :danc for Harbor freight! That price is for a pair.

Good score, first thing I thought was that with 4 I could move a buddies car to his neighbors driveway before he gets up as a head scratcher... I've used their furniture movers with 4 casters to move the rear of my car around on when my rearend was completely out of the car (no engine/trans/rear so light as it could get), I also use one for my AOD so I can roll it out the way until install, handy stuff and cheap there.

They are nice, Sluggo's got a set up at the shop I keep meaning to sneak into my trunk.

oh yes, the furniture mover things have been a must for my stuff(one for the C4) and I even made a rear axle holder attached to a furniture mover! Now it just takes up a lot of room! lol I should have EVERYTHING (tool related) for my garage after this '67 project, only i need to stock up on 1/2" and 9/16" sockets! Where the hell do they all go!!!

:rofl Thank you! that's the best laugh I've had in a while! There's a spot where one of the legs of my paint stand went off into the dirt when my airline grabbed hold of it. You know how it is! Airlines and electric cords get caught on EVERYTHING! :bike
