BAOSHISHAN 12 Ton High Lift Bottle Jack 9.25" to 23.23" Lifting Range Heavy Duty Double Ram Hydraulic Truck Jack Welded Jack

I chose this jack because of the max lift height and capacity. My truck's axles are about 22" above the the ground, so I need a tall jack unless I want to use excessive amounts of blocks (which isn't safe). Truck weight is around 12k pounds empty, 16.5k loaded. So a 12t jack gives a 100% safety margin empty and 50% loaded. This is the tallest 12t+ jack I was able to find. The jack arrived in good condition. Its big and beefy and looks well made. I did a "test lift" of my truck (empty) and it worked just fine. It lifts slowly, but that's to be expected given the high weight capacity. BTW, I used a Safe Jack axle cradle to safely lift the truck. Using a bottle jack with a small round screw pad on top directly on an axle is not a good idea. The Safe Jack 20t "universal lift pad" fits this jack. I still need to get a bigger and thicker base plate to place under the jack for stability and to prevent sinking in soft dirt, and to get a little more lift.

Would not recommend based on first trial. I tried several bleed procedures without luck and reached out for replacement. Will report back if they send a second unit. Update 2 weeks later: another unit was shipped and received. This unit works without even attempting the bleeding procedure. This is the second size jack I purchased from this company and the have many models to meet what I needed.

Works well. My only complaint is you cannot raise the handle enough to get a full stroke. This could have been resolved by having the crack off set. Instead of having the handle directly forward.

This jack has the lift distance I need to lift a high GMC 2500 HD 7,000+ pound truck, with lots of pumping, but still good and not hard. The problem is that the jack release valve has no limit. If you turn it too many times counter clock wise to release the pressure, it will fall out and all the jack oil will come pouring out of the jack. There is no warning about this in the manual. The jack has a rubber oil fill plug to refill the jack with oil, but you can't take the rubber plug out without destroying it. The manual says call customer service for help, but doesn't list a phone number or email. I may have to return the jack if I can't find a replacement rubber oil fill plug. Hate to do that because it lifts my truck so well. Very nice if you are careful and know not to turn the relief valve too far. Update: I contacted the manufacturer thru Amazon Feedback. They emailed me today and seem willing to help. Update: 4/19/2023. The manufacturer is really willing to help. They are sending me the new rubber pug I need from China, free of charge. They are also very receptive to any suggestions that could improve the jacks design. This is the only jack that lifts my GMC 2500 HD from the ground. So, I was really worried about sending it back. The Jack fits on the floor in back of the front seat, with a jack stand. Great Jack.

Very clumsy to use. It raises the first stage first, then once if reaches the lift point it has to extend the 2nd jack point so it takes twice as much pumping to work.
