Video: BendPak Aluminum Racing Jack

I just acquired a BendPak Low Profile Aluminum Racing Jack to add to my BendPak collection. This jack is light enough to ship by UPS or FedEx. It looks like it’s packed up pretty well. Let’s open it up and see what’s inside. That’s how it comes packed up in the box. It looks pretty secure. It’s a real work of art. This is made out of aircraft alloy aluminum and it’s rated for 3,000 lbs. It looks like a real beauty. Let’s take it out of the box. It looks so nice. I hate to get it dirty but that’s gonna change real quick. So what I did was I lined it up with a bunch of other jacks of similar capacity and the big advantage, one of the big advantages is if you look at these other jacks. This one has 5” of clearance minimum. This one here 5-3/4”. Even this small jack 5-1/2” minimum clearance but this low profile BendPak jack is 3-1/2” so that will fit under some very low profile cars. Here we have a Corvette C5 underneath a De Tomaso Pantera both on a BendPak HD9-XW lift. Let’s take a look at the clearance of the C5 and see if the BendPak racing jack fits under. I have a problem lifting this car with any of my other jacks and here I’ve got the BendPak jack under the puck, the lifting puck, and I don’t know if you can see that but it’s got a good 2” of clearance.
