Let me know if you have a jack or an adapter for a floor jack. Need asap for about 1-2 weeks.

You need to read the “Chainsaw Thread” before asking to borrow items on this forum......

This jack works good, small footprint, low cost.

Motorcycle jack might work as a substitute. The Sears Craftsman anyways.

Harbor Freight stuff works well and is cost effective. Sell it afterwards or keep it for the next project.

I have seen people rig things with a normal floor jack, but they are a pain to use under the car.

Went with the HF 99 buck special. It should work.

Checked at the local tool rental and it wiuld have been $35 a day, considering 2 days plus tax, this was cheaper.

I've used that jack on a NV3500 and a 700R4.

Got the shop to buy that same jack, mostly for DPFs and SCRs, and driveshafts. I really like the small footprint it has, especially while under a truck.

We used the HF Jack when we replaced the engine in my truck worked great.
Would have loaned it out, but it wasn't mine to do so.
