Default swapping wheels: recommend a good floor jack?
My winters will come in a few days, and since the my Audi jack is really slow, I want to get a floor jack that fits my A4. What do you use? thanks!

Cheap but heavy ? Sears. Aluminum at a good price ? Harbor Freight catalog.

Default thanks, seen those cheapies, don't they crimp the jack point?
or did you add a special saddle to protect the car?

Default Harbor Freight Aluminum jack $199
It works great, is lightweight and not too expensive.

I've got one and love it!
