Question:
So i was looking at the extended length and it shows that is 41 inches. I was comparing it to some other jacks of the same size and those shows 54 inches. For yall is the extended length measuring how far jack comes out without extending the foot?

Hey Bryant. The total lift measurement does include the drop leg. The Square Direct Weld Jack item # e42ZV you were looking at has a 28-3/4" total lift range that is measured by the 15" of screw travel, which is the actual jack itself, and the 13-3/4" drop leg fully extended.
When the Square Direct Weld Jack item # e42ZV is fully extended the entire thing measures 41-7/8" tall. When the jack is fully retracted it measures 27-1/8". The drop leg has adjustment holes 3-3/8" on center.
We also have the same jack that includes a handle, it's the Square Direct Weld Jack item # TJD-15000SP-F. You can use a standard 1" outer diameter steel pipe to connect the two and operate them at the same time.
How tall of a jack are you needing and what 54" tall jack are you talking about because I didn't see one?

Hello Jerrod, thanks for the info and the response. I called and spoke with one for your sales reps and he confirmed with me that the info posted online for this jack is incorrect. The jack retracted is 27 1/8 inches long. It has a total travel length of 28 3/4 inches. 15 inches from the screw and 13 3/4 from the drop foot. That equals to 55.9 inches. When I spoke with the sales rep he agreed that this is the correct fully extended length of the jack. Based on his confirmation I went ahead and ordered them as given the correct dimensions they will work perfect for my application.
