Not just a jack. Get the Jack Stands too. 2 Ton is fine if it's just your TL. Craftsman works for me.

But you can find 'em lots of places from ~$50 (jack and stands) to ???

Sears, Autozone, Pep Boys, NAPA, etc.

If you plan on heavy duty use yor heavier auto's you'll spend more.

Good looking out Bearcat You can put yourself in quite a (dangerous) predicament if you're just supporting your vehicle with the floor jacks alone...

Murrays, AutoZone, etc. sell the jack stands too I believe.

Alot of these places actually sell kits. You'll usually get a 2, 2 1/4 or 2 1/2 ton hydraulic floor jack, two Jack stands and two wheel chocks.

You can find the kits starting at ~$50 for 2-ton, more $ for more weight. Keep in mind, these are basically light duty DIY tools. For heavy duty use, you'll spend more.


Also, once you get your stuff, check the Owners Manual for jack points. In addition to the 4 side points, there are Front Center and Rear Center jack points.
