The AFF 3179A changes that. It's a hydraulic transmission jack rated at 3,000 lbs., with a low profile design that bottoms out at just 6.5\" - low enough to slide under trucks that would stop a standard jack before you even get started. One technician, one jack, no extra hands required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eThe wide chassis isn't just structural. It keeps load distribution even when you're maneuvering heavy components, so you're not fighting instability at the worst possible moment. The 4-way tilting head - front, rear, and both sides - gives you the fine angle control you need to align transmissions, differentials, and transfer cases without forcing anything. The universal saddle adjusts to fit your load, and the long handle pivots 360 degrees around the pump so you're always working from the right position, not repositioning the jack to compensate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eAmerican Forge \u0026amp; Foundry has been building hydraulic shop equipment since 1963. This isn't a rebadge operation - they manufacture, support, and stock parts for their own gear, with service centers across the country. The 3179A reflects that. It's a heavy duty transmission jack built to stay in service, not to be replaced every few years when something wears out.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eFree shipping to the lower 48 and direct phone support from our team mean you're not navigating a manufacturer phone tree when you have a question.

Use the adjustable saddle arms to secure the load fully before raising.
