NOS NSJ0302 3-Ton Aluminum Service Jack Pro Style

Awesome Jack At A Great Price. Very Impressed!

I needed a low profile durable and easy to use and move floor jack. This kills all those needs with ease. I mean that in a positive light by the way. It arrived early via FedEx and undamaged as well. I really didn’t need three Ton capacity but it cost the same as the next level down so what the heck.The setup instructions are bullet proof easy as I am not the most brilliant bulb on the tree. It took me less than 5 minutes to unbox and setup with photos of the process.I knew this was going to be heavy despite the aluminum body so I didn’t bother weighing it for this review. You want a floor jack that lifts heavy things? You can expect it to weigh a bit.Instructions were simple to follow. Be sure to remove the retaining wire but don’t pinch your skin when it flips. Picture of the wire is provided.The jack full height was at 19.5” and took about 11 full pumps to get there. Easy release with a slight handle twist with no load on it.I rolled it on the floor smoothly and easily to my garage. This thing does not clank or squeak with very smooth rolling action.My car sits at 5.5” off the ground so a low profile jack is needed. I plan on lowering it another 1.5” and I will have no problem with this jack still as the picture shows there is additional clearance available.I lifted the car with five 3/4 pumps and I could have the wheel off in no time.This is a preliminary/initial review and I will post more after a month of use. So far it’s five stars all around.

package was original and not wrapped. a disclosure of package being visible was made.pretty beat up but taped by shipping i guess.i worries at first. opened. styrofoam seemed to protect the jack. i used it and it was perfect and visually i saw no damage. to report. jack functions as described and is true to 60 lbs. maybe 58 or 59 minus fluid and handle. great looking and i aM certain it will be in use for many many years. i’M satisfied.

Seems to be a decent and reliable jack after 1.5 years of regular use. No problems yet. However, I can't find an owner's manual PDF anywhere on the web and the seller does not provide one here, but should. I will increase my rating if the seller makes this improvement.Update 3 March 2018: manufacturer has since posted a product webpage w an owner's manual PDF link:http://www.powerstationusa.com/brands/NOS/product.php?mod=NSJ0302

Decent when purchased at a lower price. This jack is actually made by arcan, which also is rebranded as sunex and nos . Arcan is known for good quality and they back their product up. I suggest shopping around, many times you can find this jack at a lower price if you don’t care to much about the color scheme. I personally like the orange and black makes it look pretty cool. However, there are some things on this product that I don’t 100% agree with. For example the wheels are made from nylon (hard plastic) I used this two times and the wheels had score marks. This jack is not intended for industrial/professional use, Unless you are you using this on epoxy flooring and only using occasionally, I don’t see these wheels lasting. Also the rubber pad after two uses split right down the middle and did not hold up well. There are also no grease fittings to lubricate the joints up nor are there any on the wheels. Which maybe be the first things to go on this jack. As far as lifting with the jack there are no issues and I do appreciate the lighter weight, and the heavier load rating .

This thing is almost the opposite of my giant 3.5 ton Michelin jack. It is very light, the wheels seem to be some type of heavy duty plastic so they don't squeak, squeal, or complain when moving about. I've only had it 4 weeks, and only jacked up a few 900 lb garden tractors, but this could be the start of a beautiful friendship. Read the instructions with the break in procedure and you should be good to go. I'm sure the Jegs aluminum jack and all the copies are great, but with all of the added features on this NOS branded one I couldn't resist.

It's Good looking, quiet on concrete, yet heavier than it really should be for an aluminum jack. But that was not a surprise. What was a surprise was that, after only a few uses on a Mustang and Jeep, the front left wheel began seizing. Disassembly and inspection revealed that the bearing had never been lubricated - it was dry as a bone, unlike the other front wheel which had been lubricated. That's just plain poor quality control! I resurfaced the damaged areas, lubricated with high quality bearing grease and reassembled. Also of note was the poor quality (Chinese) of the axle's metal and thread cut. And that it doesn't sit/roll squarely with all four wheels contacting the floor equally. It also leaked a small amount of hydraulic fluid when lifting the side of my Jeep to full height. Though it's only occurred once, and I haven't jacked it up that high since then. I still sort of like the damn thing, but I'll definitely be keeping a close watch maintaining it! If anything else goes wrong it's going back.

Extremely well made, easy to put together, so far has worked flawlessly, it does what advertised, lifts my 4Runner effortlessly and fast. The only thing I wish is that is was easier to store inside the trunk of a car, because of the handle it’s impossible
