    I have to admit, I've never been terribly happy with it. The release mechanism has always been crappy and hard to let down in a slow controlled manner. ironically, it's the release mechanism the failed. Other than that, the actual jack has worked great.

    Looking at replacing it with this...

    Lol! I was mainly pointing at the different limitations placed depending on the severity of the water conditions.

    Cool. I looked at the 3 ton one. I would have gone with it to save the cash since 3 tons is plenty for anything I need it for. However, the 4 ton model has a couple more inches of lift, which is handy with lifted trucks, so I decided on that one. :thumbsup:

    Seriously? Which model did you get? The 3 ton I was looking at was only ~18" and the 4 ton was only ~20".

    Hmm...I might have to look a bit closer. The higher lift is more important to me than the max capacity.

    And yeah there's one right down the road from me also. :cool:
