Lifting equipment and support equipment have separate roles.
The aluminium Arcan A20019 and steel SUNEX 6602LP are two lifting choices with different capacity, entry height, lift range and handling considerations. SUNEX states a 2.75–24 inch range; Arcan states 3.75–18 inches. Check the approved lift point and chassis reach before comparing headline capacity. ESCO stands perform the separate support role once the vehicle has been suitably raised.
ESCO states 3 tons per stand and requires a pair configuration for a vehicle end. That is not a universal six-ton vehicle recommendation. Use the vehicle lifting instructions, suitable saddles and a hard, level supporting surface.
| Tool | Key details | Buying consideration |
|---|---|---|
| Arcan A200193-ton aluminium low-profile floor jack | 3 US ton / 6000 lb lifting capacity · 3.75–18 inch lift range | Use only on a suitable hard, level surface at approved lifting points. Immediately support the vehicle with appropriately selected stands; never work underneath a vehicle supported only by this jack. |
| ESCO 10498-PAIR10498-PAIR three-ton performance jack stands | Two stands with rubber flat-top saddles · Manufacturer rating 3 tons per stand | Manufacturer manual requires pair configuration for supporting a vehicle end. Do not turn the per-stand figure into an unrestricted six-ton vehicle recommendation. Match saddle and support point. |
| SUNEX 6602LP2-ton steel Low Rider floor jack | 2-ton manufacturer capacity · 2.75–24 inch manufacturer lift range | Use on a suitable hard, level surface at approved lifting points. Install correctly selected stands before working beneath a vehicle; a jack’s maximum height alone does not establish vehicle suitability. |
3-ton aluminium low-profile floor jack
An aluminium floor jack for raising a vehicle at its approved lifting points before suitable supports are installed. The low-profile design is useful only where its entry height, reach and lift range fit the vehicle.
Use only on a suitable hard, level surface at approved lifting points. Immediately support the vehicle with appropriately selected stands; never work underneath a vehicle supported only by this jack.
10498-PAIR three-ton performance jack stands
A pair of pin-adjusted jack stands for supporting a suitably raised vehicle at approved support locations. Check working height, saddle contact, ground conditions and the manufacturer’s capacity instructions together.
Manufacturer manual requires pair configuration for supporting a vehicle end. Do not turn the per-stand figure into an unrestricted six-ton vehicle recommendation. Match saddle and support point.
2-ton steel Low Rider floor jack
A low-entry steel jack for suitable vehicles where the Arcan’s entry height or lift range does not fit the lifting task. Compare chassis reach, lifting-point access and handling weight as well as capacity.
Use on a suitable hard, level surface at approved lifting points. Install correctly selected stands before working beneath a vehicle; a jack’s maximum height alone does not establish vehicle suitability.
