I use this constantly, will raise the front of a loaded 3/4 ton pickup no problem. I found one from a one ton since these pics were taken that works even better. You need to be careful about bottoming or topping them out hard, had one I broke or worn out already but just replaced it. I also run some oil down it. Very very handy and very speedy. I finally made a keeper for the key so it went with the tool and wasnt chasing it around all the time.
