The jack looks to be the standard jack that you can get everywhere. My craftmans is the same exact one. I suggest getting a lower profile aluminum jack though....i use that alomst all the time.....the longer handle is a huge plus. You can pick them up at any autostore for around $80-100

yea most jacks recommend some kind of supports, just for safety anyway, I always put blocks under the car when jacking it.

Get it if you want
