| We have a 93 corolla wagon and are looking for a better, and easier jack
to put in the car, than the crummy hard to use one that came with it.
Where can we get something better and easier to use, that won't cost a
lot?

Go to Sears.com and look at mechanic's tools, they have a jack featured for
$29.77 through 10/18.06 or try harborfreight.com
http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/ctaf/displayitem.taf?Itemnumber=36119 for a
$19.99 floor jack.

I got a small hydraulic jack at Wally World In a plastic case that
works fine on my Corolla. It has a safety pin that goes in a hole in
the piston in case the jack creeps down.

What in the world is wrong with the jack?
I think it works great and is stowed in a very neat fashion.

You're not turning it with the short little thing that pries off the wheel
covers, are you? >> Stay informed about: Better jack? |

That eye hook on the end is a pain, and it's really hard for a woman to
turn. >> Stay informed about: Better jack? |

No, with the handle that has the eye hook on the end. It's just really
