Daytona 1.5 Ton Aluminum Jack Comparison - Racing vs. Ultra-low Racing (58811 vs 58206)

Ever wondered what the differences are? I'll show 'em to you side by side!
One correction/note: I spaced and said the Ultra's handle was over a foot longer, and it's just over 10" longer. Sorry for the flub!

I just picked up the “racing” jack with 40% off. I ❤ it compared to my old steel, super heavy 3 ton jack.

[@kenricrose]

Pretty decent comparison. Not the usual shill “review” you find for this jack.

Thanks! I really only do this so other people can have some information I didn't have or avoid my mistakes - 🤣

Just in time for the 40% off daytona jacks today 9/28/2024. Already have the yellow super duty 3 ton, but damn that is heavy. If that badlands jack was included in the 40% I would get it instead of this silver 1.5 ton aluminum (58811). Wish they had a 3 ton version of the silver/black aluminum like the Pittsburgh and the lift height (16 and 1/8 inch was maybe 5" longer at 20"). Grease/zerk fittings like the super duty and a different "front" caster(?) would be nice.

@@jkxss I was just wondering if the racing jack was included in the sale. At 40% off, it's a steal! I have the Super Duty too - and it's crazy how much heavier it is than either of the two jacks in this video.

Yep 40% off sale this week was a great deal. Only thing about the jack is the saddle cup is too small and if you put the jack too far under your car, the lifter arms hit the car bottom before the saddle cup does. Yes you could put a puck on the saddle but if u have a clearance issue.

What Mazda can’t that go under? It looks pretty low. Interesting the green is lighter than the all aluminum one

[@themessygarage]

Believe it or not just a regular Mazda3. I'm talking about getting to the center spot so I can get both wheels in the air at the same time. I do have aftermarket shocks in the car, so maybe it sits a little more on the springs and is a bit lower? In any case, I'm very happy to have it. The funniest part is how much less noisy and rattly it is than any of my jacks.
