ProJacks?

Rose Racing · 05-08-2013, 09:29 PM

Does anyone use ProJacks under their Class car? I checked out their website and all it has are pics of Pro Stockers? I see plenty of Drag Radial guys using them but never really see Stock or Super Stock racers using them? or I might not be paying that much attention lol How do you use them under a stock chassied car? dumb question I know.....

Last I checked there was a weight limit to those jacks. I think most of our cars weigh more than what the jacks can handle. Not 100% sure though.

The Super Stockers you will see using them are usually the Modified class cars, especially FWD cars that have SFI 25 style cages an chassis that almost mirror a Comp cars.

I think if I remember rght one of the Southland HEMI Barracudas using them quite a few years back but I could be mistaken...

I've seen a few HEMI cars using them... I know Larry Woo used one on his hemi a few years ago, i have pics of it somewhere.

e-z lift makes a set for the 3000lb+ cars. the rear jack sits into a half round female tab that cradles the top of the jack it usually welds to the bottom of the 4 link brackets on the chassis. and front jack needs a lower frame rail to slide on . it has a female saddle that goes onto a round frame rail. it needs to be able to slide a few inches as the car goes up. they can be ordered in custom widths. they are available at jerry bickle race cars. pro jack may also have sets for heavier cars, but e-z lift is all I have ever used.

They work for Stock/SS cars. You need a saddle front and rear for the crossbar to fit in. Mans bought a set, pretty cool!

Might be a little iffy on grass or mud?

I use them on my 3600# Super Stocker. Very Stable.

Money well spent

Have had a set of Pro Jacks since I built my last personal SS car.

They are great to deal with and custom build to fit your chassis.

Wouldn't be without them. Very safe under all conditions, too.
Have not had a single problem with them.

I think what you see is the cost factor (not as many in use in SS).
In reality, well worth the cost and never loose value, too.
