VEVOR 2.5 Ton Low Profile, Heavy-Duty Steel Racing Floor Jack with Single Piston Lift Pump, Lifting Range 3.35"-14.96"

What It Is

The VEVOR 2.5 Ton Low Profile Racing Floor Jack is a hydraulic lifting tool designed for low-clearance vehicles (sports cars, lowered trucks, and lawn tractors) that require a lift range of 3.35 to 14.96 inches. It’s not a mower-specific part but is commonly used to lift riding mowers, zero-turn mowers, and garden tractors for blade removal, tire changes, or under-deck service.

Fitment & Compatibility

Before buying, measure your mower’s clearance at the lowest lift point (usually the front axle or frame rail). This jack’s minimum saddle height is 3.35 inches, so it fits most riding mowers with at least that ground clearance. Check your mower’s weight: the jack lifts 5,000 lbs, which covers nearly all residential zero-turn and garden tractors (typically 500–1,000 lbs). For wider mower decks (over 54 inches), ensure the jack’s 14.96-inch max height provides enough room to slide under the deck and lift the frame—not the deck itself. No OEM vs. aftermarket concerns since it’s a universal jack, but verify the saddle size (about 4x4 inches) fits your mower’s lift points.

Key Things to Know

• Quality concerns: Some users report oil leaks or air in the hydraulic system upon arrival. Bleed the jack by opening the release valve and pumping 5–10 times before first use.
• Installation difficulty: None—it’s ready out of the box after adding hydraulic oil (included). No assembly required.
• Common gotchas: The single-piston lift pump is slower than dual-piston models, so expect multiple pumps to reach full height. The low-profile design means the rear wheels are small, making it harder to roll on grass or gravel—use on hard, level surfaces.
• Weight: At 30 lbs, it’s portable but not flimsy. The steel frame holds up well under mower loads, but avoid using on uneven terrain to prevent tipping.

Should You Buy It

Buy this jack if you need an affordable, low-profile lift for a riding mower or low-clearance vehicle, and you’re willing to bleed the hydraulics and work on flat, hard ground. Skip it if you want a faster lift, need to work on rough terrain, or require a higher max height (over 15 inches) for larger tractors.
