if you are looking for a jack when doing projects, sears had a 3ton jacks, 2 stands, and a creeper for 99 bucks. Brandy got it for me last year and works great on her clubman. I have to drive watson up on ramps first to get the jack under, but prefer that way less twist to the subframe.
Harbor freight has lot of good bottle jacks for carrying around. when loooking the wider the base the more stable. Any time you have a reason to go to harbor freight its a good thing.
