Harbor Freight tools thread.

Mine arrived Friday!

 

Me too!

 

There's a 20% off coupon for Inside Track Members that's good through Monday. If you're going to make a big purchase now isn't a bad time.

They didn't have the new Badlands jack in just yet but I picked up the new Daytona 1.5 Ton low-profile racing jack for my cars. With all of the machining on it this thing is probably the fanciest item that I've ever seen at Harbor Freight... plus it'll be nice to not have to lug around a 100+lb long reach jack for vehicles that need a low profile jack but don't need the extended height.

 

The email that I received that I received this morning was for 10% off non insider track members and 20% off insider track members with NO EXCLUSIONS.

 

The item has to be in stock (I asked about ordering the Badlands jack and they said the coupon wouldn't work), not an open box item, and you can't double up on a coupon/promotion. And yes: 10% for non-ITM and 20% for ITM. My brother-in-law got the 670cc Predator engine and they didn't bat an eye.

 

Same email, 10% off. I think a new 3 ton low profile floor jack is in my future.

 

Try to get the long reach Daytona version as you get an extra inch of lift height over the regular low profile Daytona. The Pittsburgh version only goes up to 19-7/8".

If I was going to get either Daytona jack and I didn't already have Inside Track I'd probably join as the extra 10% will practically pay for a year of membership.

 

Friday the 22nd huh? Someone was looking at their 2023 calendar when they wrote this page.

 

I noticed that too thanks! I'm going tomorrow morning for a lime green one as I had too many other things going on today.

 

Question - Is the Inside Track Membership worth the scratch? I don't buy a ton from HF but recently have purchased a few things and am looking at a new floor jack and other items. Thanks

 

I don't think it is, I have had it twice and each time I have never really used it to make it worth it, But that's just my opinion.

 

Just like Costco It really depends on how much you actually buy. If you have your eye on some big ticket purchases and/or you watch their deals then it definitely can pay for itself with a coupon like the one this weekend.

If you go once this weekend and buy something $300 then you have paid for a year of membership plus you'll have access to IT deals. I scored a 2 year membership for $45 a while back and have definitely made that money back and then some.

 

A nice lady at the checkout counter gave me a free inside track membership last time I was there. Need to look around and see if there’s anything worth spending more money on with 20% off.

 

Thank you, it's $44.00 online right now for 2 years and what prompted me to ask.

Thanks to the rest for the replies.

 

The low-profile long-reach is the one you want. It's like 23.5" of total reach. On my instagram there's a photo of my truck flexed out on it with my LT rear. I still had shock shaft to go, but the jack was done.

 

FWIW: I have the 2T “racing” jack. Lift was just shy of lifting my OR from the frame rails.

I added the Pro-Eagle saddle and adjustable/removable riser thing. About $100 ish IIRC.

Very happy with end result. On 2nd notch MORE than enough lift and very stable with the ProEagle parts. Noticeably less weight and bulk with this set-up. Would by again for sure (MIGHT go with the new 1.5T super lightweight version though if I had the option as I only use it on smooth garage floor)

 

Thru the 26th; 20% off any one [in stock] item. One item >$200 and it pays for itself for the year. Be careful though, if you buy a jack (great deal) and a $4 box of rubber gloves, they will take the 20% off the gloves.

 

Every time I have used a coupon, it automatically goes to the most expensive eligible item.

 

I opted for the super duty 3 ton jack with 23 1/8" lift over the 3 ton long reach version with 24 1/4" of lift. It's roughly an inch less in lift height, but the jack appears to have more structural support. I can always use a block of wood for extra lift height if needed. It was quite comical loading the thing into the cart and trying to maneuver it out to the truck through the parking lot. I thought it was going to break the shopping cart.

I did spend some time looking at the Yukon mobile workbenches with the wood tops. I'm thinking about getting a blue one and possibly a second jack.

 

Still using the recalled HF jack-stands
