Omega 29023 Magic Lift Black Low Profile Hydraulic Service Jack - 2 Ton Capacity

The low profile and long reach are perfect for sports cars. The control is great for slow lowering. It is very well made.

I bought this for my 03 Honda S2000 and 08 Tacoma X-Runner.The good:The jack reaches the R "pumpkin" and F crossmember on both vehicles and is able to get them plenty high in a couple dozen pumps. Solid construction.The bad:The hydraulic cylinder aka "power unit" started leaking after 4 or 5 uses. Replacement cost = $140. I expect this from a $80 jack, not a $350 unit like this.

Update 8/23/2020:Still going strong, but read on if you also received a jack that makes it a Herculean chore to lift a 2 door car ...For a potentially easy improvement. "Since day one (2013) I've always had to apply my most of my body weight as leverage; ~175 lbs" Well, I started using it again and now takes all of my body weight and I decided it needed an oil change and filled it w/ ISO 32 hydraulic oil; I chose Hapco. This oil actually helped with ease of use for me... Maybe it now requires levering in about half of my body weight to get the front weight of the mustang off the ground and I'm no longer wondering if I'm pulling the handle anywhere nears its operating limit. That oil choice is good enough of an improvement that I've ceased eyeing those access ports with the huge warning disclaimers that will obviously open up Pandora's box or either having to do the responsible thing and taking it to a service center for calibration. I wouldn't hesitate to buy one again, it's built to last for a long time. Also, watch out for the price... It dramatically skyrockets from time to time.**Edit: Please read Tuck's comment below regarding servicing info, much more informative and convenient than what I read off the owner's manual.. Upgrade to 4 Stars. Thank you Tuck!**The design of this jack fit the bill on a lowered 2005 Mustang Gt. Access is always granted!However, there are negatives, I do find that the jack does take a considerable amount of force to lift anything.. I'm around 2 bills dry and I need to use most of my weight to get things in motion. Perhaps there is a problem with the jack? Which also opens up concern regarding the lifespan of the jack.Also, the owner's manual mentions that any repairs require sending the unit in... I find this to be another negative. You are probably looking at freight shipping, it is heavy. I'd much rather have a replacement part sent to me.

This is the real thing, very sturdy and belongs on the floor of a shop or a garage... 120 lbsYou will not have an easy time lifting this thing around. better to have an area it can just sit in and then roll into place.

I bought this for an '02 C5 Vette, after reading through old forums posts. Critically, it has 22" of length from center of the saddle (jack pad) to the pivot point, which is enough to reach the front cast cross member. Other lowered cars (e.g. DSM) should be easier, as the vette is rather unique in the amount of front overhang. Nice not to need to roll it up onto ramps first. I looked at one alternate in person at a certain well known "freight" store. It only had ~18" of reach, which was insufficient.Quick rise works well. Takes more force than most jacks, and the handle needs to rotate a larger arc than most. Lowering hydraulic is decent. Did not drop, but I am picky and would like a more flow restriction in the lowering.Its not really that heavy in practice, at long as you know its a floor jack to wheel around. With the long body, mine is not perfectly level, and rides on only one of the two small front wheels. My old steel craftsman is easier to roll. Remember to follow the bleed instructions. It won't work at all until bled.Delivered on a pallet within 3 days, and the driver even put it inside the garage. Free shipping (not really, there is a reason mine cost over $300). Nice. The box does say made in China.Limited use so far, so I'll update on hydraulics if there is any news. No news is good news.This may seem negative, but I am picky. This is a specialty tool that saves a lot of work, does what it was designed to do, and is heavily built. It's a handy time saver for sports cars.

Omega 29023 2 Ton Heavy Duty Low Profile Service JackThis is by far THE BEST I have ever used. VERY EASY to manuever. Long handle makes it easy to lift vehicle. I have a customized Dodge Dakota that is lowered, and this jack is the first one that actually fits underthe truck. Should have bought this jack years ago instead of wasting money on other so called low profiles. This jack is DEFINITELY worth the money.

This jack is the only way to go if you want to service a SLK 55 AMG. It is low enough to roll right under and long enough to reach the lifting pad. You can find this jack for fifty dollars cheaper on amazon as I did, but when I received the jack it was missing parts and was shipped poorly so I had to return it. Not the case with this jack it was packaged well and got to me in perfect shape. I would have given it five stars but the shipping was four days later then the expected arrival date.

The best jack I have ever owned for a lowered vehicle, period! It is extremly robust and I feel completely confident it will last for years.
