Floor Jack

 


The Floor Jack equipped on a tow truck has to have a few things taken into consideration. Being that there is limited storage space on the tow truck, it is wise to choose a jack that has the most lifting capacity. At the same time the jack can't be so big that it is hard to stow and carry. Another thing to consider is clearance. Many instances will need a jack that has low clearance to get underneath lower vehicles which can sometimes compromise the weight that the jack can lift. Something to consider would be a medium between height clearance as well as weight capacity for maximum utilization potential.
