Thanks. I picked up the last DK13HLQ from acjacks.com. I'll post a review in the DIY section (AK should add a Tools section for reviews...) when it arrives next week. The seller lives across the state from me so the shipping wasn't too bad, but I'm sure most people would balk at the total price.

I'll still have to use starter ramps (~2 inches), but this model lifts above 20". If I want to get my wheels on 12" wheel cribs I'll have to compensate for the suspension droop in addition to the 12" crib height. Anyway I'll post pics at a later date.

Believe me, you've purchased the best floor jack available for the enthusiast and professional in the world today! You will not be disappointed. Pickup some spare wheels and o-rings if they are in stock. Most AC Hydraulic diehards stockpile replacement parts for these pups as they are lifetime keepers.
