Jack Rails

Anyone using them?... What brand, and how do you like them?

What Jack are you using as well?

Steeda jacking rails, they work great, easy to bolt on. I'm using a 3 ton low profile jack from Harbor Freight that I got for $99. It's the heavy grey kind, not the blue lightweight aluminum. I'm lowered on Steeda Progressives and it works great. Some friends with GT's that are lowered on Steeda Ultralights also use the same jack and it works for them too.

BMR. Longer (but heavier) than Steeda's. BMR also rotates the long run of tubing so that it is parallel to the ground whereas the others follow the floorpan and as such aren't on the same plane as the ground.

Extremely beefy. Color me very happy.

We have quite a few GT350 owners out there using our rails.

As mentioned above, they are a little heavier than the others, but I feel they are a superior design.

If you have any questions, do not hesitate to let me know!

Happy modding!

Kelly, you guys did a great job on these. I like the long span as it allows placing jack stands further apart. I don't like the idea of placing stands close together. And as somebody that welded/fabricated in the field for years I have to say that the guys doing the work for you are doing a good job. The welds are first rate (consistent weave pattern, no random start/stop points, no voids, etc) and the powdercoating is very well done. If you had these for the S197 I'd have added them to my GT500 as well.

Keep up the good work!

I've installed the BMRs as well...very happy!!

This is a GT350 correct? Seeing the ground effects and exhaust it appears to be. The thing I noticed that seems strange to me is your gas tanks do not have the foil tape and mine does. Weird.

I made an aluminum jack block to get started, then installed the Steeda jack rails. Jack rails are definitely the way to go for your normal home garage service. Much faster and safer, just need to get used to raising the car side-to-side rather than front to back.

You can use www.imgur.com, or the app, to upload. Then just copy/paste the BBcode link (has the brackets). :cheers:

I have the Steeda jack rails and they are great. I use a alum light weight jack. They both work perfect for my use.

I would have liked longer rails in the back but weight is an issue. I also use a hockey puck between jack and rails

Glad we have so many happy customers, we literally can't keep these things in stock! We designed them to work in conjunction with our very popular IRS subframe support braces. :cheers:

See pictures below . I love mine.

What's the purpose of having jack rails? Is there something wrong with factory recommended jack points?

Not at all. Just makes it so much faster to jack up your car anywhere on the rail.

I can literally have my car on jack stands in 1 minute by myself. If someone else is there 30 seconds.
