Well looks like I'm going with craftsman LP jack, cause I want mine to be slammed with the WW kit, but make it up the driveway still, i might have to work on that one ha!
Also this will help me narrow down, you guys just pick up the 2 and half ton jack?

Even with a jack you should make wooden ramps. Ramps are cheap and will save you from a possible headache.
I'd love to get this one:
2-Ton, Ultra Low Profile Floor Jack
I have a pretty standard jack now but it's not low enough to get under my front jack point. The next time I have to use ramps will probably be my last and I'll just order this one here. And I'm not even slammed like so many here.
I don't think this is something I'd go cheap on, though. Get a good set of jack stands, too.

i got the blue harbor freight low profile jack...it is good for the price...however if you are gonna use it alot...i'd spend a bit more...cause to me it doesn't feel too durable...
I've had bad luck with jacks. Bought some cheapies from walmart, that blew out a seal and leaked oil. I bought a nice harbor freight jack (and got the warranty) and it blew out the seal and leaked oil (happened while jacking up the car, it almost flat out dropped) and got it replaced. Next one did the exact same thing. I returned it (happened within a year) and bought a craftsman low profile that's been fine. There is a small leak though, but craftsman does repairs on them

Alot of my friends have craftsman and they seem to be durable. I have some off brand one i got for like $35 that has some how held up fine for 6 years but doesn't go high enough for some cars and probably wouldn't be low enough for those who have over a 2.5 in drop. Even though i have had a good experience with a cheap one, i will spend atleast $100 in the future, i recommend you do too as you will most likely use for along time.
