Review on BIG RED T84032 Torin Hydraulic Low Profile Aluminum Racing Floor Jack - 3 Ton Capacity (6,000 lb) - Quick Lift Pump - Red by Joe Kokenge

Revainrating 1 out of 5

A very poor quality jack that bankrupted us until we worked 2 hours on the machine.

Poor quality, made in China. The wheels didn't roll properly so we had to do a little work on the machine to get them rolling properly due to poor quality control and not enough clearance on the sides of the wheels and the bore diameter was off. First we machined .030 from one wheel and .050 from the other front wheel, we could at least get them rolling as there wasn't enough side clearance so the factory just left the bolts loose because the wheels would bind when tightened. That helped, but the holes were out. So we machined new bushings and bored out the wheels to match. We then notice that the swivel wheels have too much play. This jack must come from JEGS Performance factory scrap. Get a jack from JEGS Performance Product, a great jack, also made in China but of a higher standard. We build airplanes and we know what quality is. This jack looks good in the picture, but it's a cheap jack that doesn't cost much.

Pros
  • Pleasant
Cons
  • Good but not great
