    • Wish I Had Bought This Sooner
Size: 1-5/32-inch Connector
I want to preface this review with the fact that I knew ahead of time that it would not fit my low-profile HF floor jack and that it would need to be modified in order to work with that setup. I was able to cut the arbor off and bore the correct sized hole in its place using my Bridgeport mill so that it would fit over the flange bolt that holds attachments to the HF jacks. This could also be done if you had the correct size drill bit, even in a hand drill. In this case I just used what I already had so as to avoid spending money on a large diameter bit I would likely only use once. I think Performance Tool is leaving a lot of sales on the table by not offering this same attachment with the correct sized hole for mounting to the HF jacks. Maybe they should offer this in the future since HF discontinued their own version. Now for the review itself. I found the transmission platform to be a good design that makes it far superior to other methods that I've used. These in the past have included using one or two floor jacks, a scissor-type transmission jack, and simply pulling the smaller transmissions out by hand. This method is far superior to all of those. Without even using the safety chain, the front drive transmission in my car was very stable and at no point did it wobble or try to fall off like all of the other non-transmission jacks I've used (also better than the scissor jack, which would try to tip over with heavier transmissions strapped to it). Another great feature of this that I used is the tilt adjustment to get the transmission and engine mating surfaces to line up perfectly. While the screw was difficult to turn with all that weight on it, it was way easier than muscling the transmission around using nothing but my own hands. Once I got everything lined up with this, it was fairly easy to get several bolts started and then proceed to slide it over the alignment dowels. The only feature I would add if I could is a screw that allows for side-to-side tilt adjustments, but it wasn't a big deal without it honestly. To sum this all up, this first transmission job using the attachment, which I performed alone, was the smoothest one I've ever done. Even with plenty of helping hands and extra sets of eyeballs around, you simply can't duplicate the features you get when you use this style of jack attachment (or an expensive transmission jack). Once you get everything where you want it, it stays there until you're ready to move it again. Attached to a heavy floor jack it's not tippy and it just works. Hopefully I'll never do a transmission without this tool again. It's a must have. ... show more

    • Totally worth the money!!! BEST $$$ EVER SPENT!!!
Size: 1-5/32-inch Connector
I ordered this transmission jack adapter even though I read some conflicting reviews. I thought I'd share mine. Upon assembling the adapter, I came to find most was already assembled minus a few pieces. The quality was what I expected from seeing the pictures. I will admit some hardware was missing, but it was only 3 washers. Washers which I had laying around the house. People on here complained about the hardware, but it looked plenty fine for me. I used this to remove a transmission from a 1995 Ford F-150 (Automatic)... and I gotta say, IT WORKED WONDERS! SAVED ME LOTS OF TIME AND HEADACHE. Now, I wasn't removing the transmission and replacing it with another. I was replacing a rear main seal. So the height of the adapter didn't really affect me too much. If I were removing the transmission, I would have to lift the truck up a few more inches. All in all the adapter worked very well and despite the lack of 3 washers, I'll still recommend it to someone and give it a 5 star rating! Best $60 ever spent!!! ... show more

    • Not useful
Size: 1-5/32-inch Connector
This thing is useless at best, dangerous at worst. Messed with it for 20 minutes then tossed it into the trash. - As others have noted, the base height is like 2 feet. So even working on a lifted Jeep I can't roll the transmission under the frame. Would only work if you had a lift. - The way the platform attaches to the jack makes it hugely unstable - The tilt mechanism is hokey and not useful Overall just not a good product. Poor design, poor execution. ... show more

    • Too tall to use with a car sitting on ramps
Size: 1-5/32-inch Connector
It took several hours of modifying the adapter to fit my jack. I rolled the jack under the car, which was sitting of four car ramps. That was when I realized the base of the adapter was sitting about two inches below the bottom of the transmission. I should have figured this out just by looking at it. To use this transmission adapter the car would need to be jacked up two or three feet higher than it already was. This adapter probably won't work unless you have access to a car lift. With a normal jack or ramps there is no way to lift a car high enough to use the adapter. ... show more

    • Useful and inexpensive floor jack adapter.
Size: 1-5/32-inch Connector
Gave this item a 4 simply because it is an inexpensive transmission adapter for a floor jack. However saying that, it is well made, solidly welded and confident it will handle most jobs when properly used. Assembly instructions are slim, but if you can tackle a transmission removal/install you should be able assemble this product without any issues. The hole Size for the pin is 1 5/16” which is a common standard size. Floor jacks are designed to work on hard smooth surfaces, not dirt or gravel. As always, exercise proper safety measures and do not use this product if the weight limit is exceeded. ... show more

Works well enough. Mounts directly to my floor jack. The chains aren't too great, but a rachet strap remedies that.
