Torin Big Red Farm Jack

Does the Torin Big Red Farm Jack accept standard High Lift Accessories? Should I return the Torin for the original? Seems like a $27 difference.

Re: Torin Big Red Farm Jack

My own personal experience with off-brand Hi-Lift clones is that they never work as well as the original, and are apt to fail catastrophically at the worst possible moment. $27 is nothing against the frustration of a jack you don't trust. YMMV.

Just pick the two up and shake em, hi lift is made better, for quick use leave it on a dirty barn bench for your once in a blue moon tractor lift....go with the torin. Use for your pride and joy spen the extra 30 bucks.

Re: Torin Big Red Farm Jack

Returned the Torin. I never pulled it out of the box to compare but I wanted to make sure that all the after-market accessories would fit.

Always buy the best the first time, otherwise you're always trying to upgrade to what you really wanted.
