I'm looking for the best place to get a Hi-Lift. Doesn't have to be the lowest price on the net could be from the vendor who's been the best to LOST.

I've been looking around and found this deal on 4WD.com
It comes with a few accessories along with the Hi-Lift ...

Anyone else have any recommendations?

IF you have a farming store or country around you look there also. They are the same thing, and cost less.

Our local farm stores Atwoods and Tractor supply have both Hi Lift brand and a generic farm jack. The farm jack is cheap but looks pretty sturdy and the Hi lift is on par with other places and you don't have to pay shipping, although I think Amazon has super saver free shipping. Looks like you have a tractor supply, and a few other places down there when I googled farm supply in Tallahassee. Plus then you get instant gratification. Farm stores are also a great place to get uber recovery straps, d-rings, rope, chain, hitches etc.

I bought a no name brand farm jack thinking the same thing. After a year it was trash. Went out last weekend to Tractor Supply and got a Hi-Lift for $85. No waiting, no shipping.

What you would save in shipping you would pay in tax. Also 4WD.com has that package with the handle holder and the wider base plate for just a few bucks more that the Hi-Lift alone would cost a TSC. Also if you a 4WD.com location near you, you get free shipping to the store for pick up.

Ah, but when it is shipped to the store, you pay the tax. I suggest you just compare the same jack at different locations and buy it where ever it is cheapest. I was just trying to give you options.
Last time I was at our local farm store, they had the 48" Highlift for 65 bucks. I thought that was hard to beat. But they are a local chain.
