Any experience with this HF Trans Jack?

Got my lift all done and need to remove a trans. Not something I am going to do often, but I looked and did not see many places locally that would rent them for the day. I am usually willing to pay a bit more for a quality tool, but I am getting to the point that I may just drop the trans with the lift all the way down old school instead of with the car up in the air as I did not realize these jacks were that pricey.

I was just curious if anyone had used this one from HF before. Again, I will probably be using it a handful of times and thought it would be a decent tool if I could use their 20% on top of it.

Thanks

I have that. It's very good and well worth the price. I use it for several things under the car and have some extensions from an old Porto Power I use. Pic later.on phone now.
This is a quality tool, buy and don't even think of renting. Once you own it the thing doesn't eat much and there is no deadline.
Once its yours can add attachments or cuts to the head, all kinds of rig ups for several jobs. Mine gets used for other jobs way more than trans. I used it a day or 2 ago, ant even remember exactly what it was, something on exhaust on a truck till it got welded probably.

I have one of those ( slightly less weight capacity- 800 lbs I think ) was renting a house that had a pit in the garage . I put the trans jack in the pit . used it for pulling tans and also removing rear ends. was also a great place to set an oil drain pan for oil changes and the like. paid 100.00 bucks for mine. well worth it to me.

Awesome, thanks guys. Totally forgot about dropping the rear end for a swap as well. Time to print out a 20% coupon now

Buy the cradle attachment. You'll be glad you did.
