USA Made Bottle Jack Buddy™ 3 inch axle Saddle

Solid build quality but like some reviews mentioned, the inner weld is a little bulky and needed to be ground down a bit to fit the bottle jack size stated in the specs.

So easy to use. Well made.

Bought this for my 10 ton bottle jack I carry on my travel trailer, unfortunately the bottle jack pad diameter is too small for the saddle, resolved this by using a pvc pipe adapter 1 1/2" to 1 1/4", just grind down the threads slightly so it fits snugly in the saddle and use a 2x4 or rubber hammer to tap it in. Perfect fit

It's a little expensive but if we don't keep manufacturing jobs onshore then we won't be able to buy even the things that are made in Communist China! That rant aside, the Buddy is a well-engineered, well-made unit that makes jacking a vehicle up much safer. And it is small enough to store with the jacking equipment already supplied with my 4Runner. The only downside is that they did not include any bling; an old man needs his bling. I need the sticker that says: "Don't go... without your buddy."

This is a very well built product and works great. RV manufacturers and RV axle manufacturers will tell you to only jack your RV by the frame. Here is why this product is your solution: No one is hauling around a jack with enough blocking to safely reach any RV frame. Especially if you're broken down on the side of a highway. This product allows you to jack your RV under the axles (staying as close to the leaf shackles as possible), with minimum blocking needed.This product distributes the jacking contact area across the most surface area of the axle housing.The price is a bit steep for what you're buying but it is a beefy and well built product.
