This is a quality mount. However, like many others I couldn’t get the strap to tighten properly. I chose to modify the design by drilling holes in the studs that are on the mount and pinning it rather than strapping it.
I haven't had to used the jack on my car yet. Now that I want to use it nothing has broke. But, I have used it on a buddy's car. He has a xxxxxx car and has a Chinese knock off of this jack. His Broke. Just like his car does every trip. He even scratched his head and admitted the superior nature of the AGM Jack. I also have the new plug kit. Haven't had to use that yet either but I am a pack rat and like that kinda stuff. As always, I am happy with AGM products.
Mounts perfectly between the seats and the sand pad comes off easily so I throw that in my boxes with the impact.
I purchased 4 of the XL3.5 ton JackRods for my 4 teo ton jacks so I can lift my C8 Z06 completely off the ground 24" (O.cam.also.just ise one at a time or im pairs to lift one end or one side of the car. I also bought two of the 2 ton Jackrods for my lightweight 1.5 ton floor jacks, and two of the 5 ton JackRods for simple things like changing tires and checking brakes.
Why are these perfect... on late model Vettes you need to use a jack-puck in the frame in order not to damage the rocker panels but this is the same point you need to place a jack stand... impossible to occupy the same spot at the same time with a jack and jack-stand. The JackRods turn my floor jacks into jack stands... problem solved!!
Additionally it allows me flexibility and light weight options if needed transport. I highly considered getting Quickjacks and they have some great benefits but come with many drawbacks. They are very heavy and not easy to properly place, block access from the sides of the car, take up floor or wall space, have many potential issues with hydrolocs, and more difficult to transport to a track (takes too much space in the trailer and they don't fit in a trunk for that day trip)
I highly recommend these even though I feel they might be a little expensive but well worth it and why I have a total of eight of them for different uses.
