4000 Lb. Unijack Bottle Jack & Jackstand in One
$90 USD on Powerbuilt Tools
The Powerbuilt Unijack is the world's first and only portable jack designed to safely lift and hold both regular and unibody cars and trucks. All Unibody vehicles have factory-approved lifting points to prevent damage when jacking up the vehicle. But with a conventional jack, it’s challenging to properly lift and hold a unibody vehicle, because once the vehicle is raised with a jack, there’s no space left to add a jackstand. The Powerbuilt Unijack solves this problem with an ingenious design that both safely lifts and securely holds a Unibody vehicle using a single lift point. The Unijack offers both concave and flat lifting surfaces to accommodate a wide variety of lift points. What’s more, Unijack eliminates the cost and hassle of a floor jack, it’s easier to lift, move and store and costs a lot less too. The 4000 pound Unijack offers lift range from 8-5/8 to 18-3/8 inches, which makes it perfect for sedans, minivans and crossovers. Stylish and affordable, Powerbuilt products meet or exceed ASME and PALD standards. One year warranty. Patented design both lifts and holds by combining a bottle jack with a jack stand in one unit Lifts and supports a variety of vehicles with 4000 pound capacity and lift range of 8-5/8" to 18-5/8" Safe for lifting Unibody and body-on-frame vehicles Wide flat base adds stability and reduces "sinking" on softer surfaces Stylish and affordable Powerbuilt products meet or exceed ASME and PALD standards One year warranty WARNING: Cancer and reproductive harm - www.P65Warnings.ca.gov

The unit doesn't give me great confidence. As you can see in the picture it leans to the side as the jacking point is not center under the lifting point. The bottle jack portion is not attached or welded to the bottom plate in any way, it just sits on top of the plate. I haven't used bottle jacks much so I don't know if this is common for the shaft to lean that much and how that is going to affect the longevity of the unit. It did go high enough to raise the rear tire off the ground and then it when one more notch but that was it.
I liked the idea of this because it has an actual safety jack that can be locked and not rely solely on the hydraulics.
Anybody got a better solution for doing quick winter/summer tire changes?

If you want a floor jack for your garage, a Harbor Freight Super duty is a good choice. It's a high quality jack and is within an inch or two of the high lift model which should come in handy if using the center lift points. I also have another Harbor freight that I use when doing rotations. I just lift up the side and go move the tire front to rear and rear to front. I don't own jack stands and if going under the car, the tires would be on. I've built cradles out of 2X4's. That I use on other cars. I've found these to be easier than ramps.I bought one of these Powerbuilt 4000 lbs units to try since my floor jack would not go high enough without putting blocks underneath it.
