Must have tool for anyone who owns a riding mower - Best Riding Mower Jack For The Money (MoJack) 

I have ramps for changing oil in my vehicles. I back the mower on the ramps and jack up the front with at floor jack. I put jack stands under the front and now have access to the blades under the deck. Just make sure that the jack stands are secure. I never just depend on the floor jack on the front to keep it up.

I have the 26 inch 550 lb lift like your model. My shop floor is smooth concrete and my zero turn mower’s front wheels push the jack across the floor. I put some wheel chocks behind the jack’s wheels and they won’t stop it from sliding. I then ripped a 1 x 6 to form a ramp, placed them against the wheel wells and can now drive the front wheels up and over into the wheel wells. Now, my problem is getting the mower out of the wheel wells. It will pull the jack across the smooth floor in reverse. The only solution I have found so far to this problem is to get a floor jack, slide it underneath the deck, jack the mower up an inch or so and pull the MoJack from under the wheels. The MoJack cost me $240.00 at Tractor Supply this past May. It is a convenient tool to have and will be better once I figure how to back off the wheel wells.

Have had one of these jacks for several years now. Use them on my own mower and seven other mowers at our church. It works great very helpful when changing blades. One thing I have noticed be sure to use the straps because if you’re rear wheels on the tractor do not rotate the front wheels will try to roll out of the wheel lifting devices. I also took some PVC pipe cut two pieces about 3 inches long and split them along the length to be able to slide them over the ends of the jack. This allows the jack to roll slightly and helps keep the wheels in the lifting devices.

I know what I am going to buy this weekend. Great video! It's "Sooo Smooth"!

I have had my MoJack for two years now and love it. I clean under my deck every other mow because of the grass and dirt that collects underneath. All the reasons you cover are fulfilled in my use. Easy to use, structural robust, easy to move around with the wheels, safe and storage is excellent because I stand it upright against the wall of my 12x16 shed. Great product for anyone with a riding mower/garden tractor.

I bought one a month ago and really like it.

Love my Mojack HDL...makes changing belts so much easier....good vid btw...

Just bought one because of this highly informative and very entertaining video

Oh, I see a welding project in my future. 3 ton floor jack with a home built wheel cradle attachment.

Have ordered one of these for my Husqvarna Z248F after watching this video. Thanks

Great review! That looks like exactly what I need!

Excellent video. I was tired of borrowing my brothers and then having to schedule around that. I found this video and decided this is the way to go. I purchased one today from HD and have had my John Deere e130 up in the air already. So far it's a 5 Star purchase. Thanks for the review on this very necessary tool.

Watched your harbor freight mower jack lift and you loved it.

Love to have this one, seems to work good, love the storage part

I have the MoJack Pro and it's so easy to use. I feel completely safe using it.

Hi nice video & info....Mojack looks great!....tks for sharing & keep them coming!

The jack looks fantastic, I need to get one!

I purchased this Mojack HDL 500 lift at Home Depot. It looks well made. I have a 60" Ariens Ikon mower and I found you can not drive on lift without raising your mower deck all the way up with mower foot lift. If you don't the small ,center, front mower deck wheel hits the front of the Mojack lift which will keep pushing it back, not allowing mower wheels to go into Mojack lift wheel holders. So far so good.

Whenever you do your one year follow-up, you should explicitly mention the product model, not just the brand. MoJack has eight different standard products, with three additional products that're branded for different mower brands, where two of which, with an additional branded product so 3 total, are hydraulic and have this design; this product, the 500 pound capacity version, a 550 pound capacity version, and a Cub Cadet variant of the 550 pound version. All the other products use a vertical screw with cantilevered legs and wheel holders, except one model that uses a screw based scissor jack that keeps all the load bearing directly under the wheels with an extended footing. This specific product is the HDL, as the sticker says. Having a link in the description to your generic storefront of choice really doesn't alleviate the inevitable consumer confusion when you only refer to a product by the brand's name and not the product's name as well.

Just bought this bad boy. Hope it doesn't disappoint.

Very impressive tool to say the least. Nothing worse than trying to manhandle mower deck from underneath tractor. Looks like it would make short work of changing blades out and cleaning out mower deck. Definitely thinking about getting one, anything to make my job easier.

So smooth.

Great video as always Broski @ToolReviewZone

Thank you very much for sharing this with us.

Put mine together and it wouldn’t do anything, finally after bleeding the bottle Jack it started working as it should. Happy with it now.

Great video. Thanks!

What's up brother it's nice because the straps are the same ones you use to hold down your Cub Cadet side by side on the trailer so you don't want it to move but I always believed in find a better Jack then what's needed for the vehicle especially if you have to work under it I have a friend that was working in his driveway on his car and the Jack let loose did not have jack stands and broke both his legs when the car came down now I always like to use Two Jacks if possible when working on my truck along with a jack stand and if I'm removing the tires I also like to lay them under the truck because I do not feel like having round 5400 lb falling on top of me but once again another great video showering safety is so easy these days when purchasing items but still anyting could happen at any time so just be safe and don't use milk crates thinking they're going to stop a vehicle from falling😎👊🍻🇺🇸this was a real nice right video hope you're enjoying your weekend with your family like always

This is great!!!! i have been waiting for a long time to buy a lift jack. i went to harbor freight to buy one, but i did not... You made my day!! thank for this video!!! i have order one.. thank you again!!!! keep on mowing !!!!

That jack has good Engineering. And looks well made.

I like it I bought one a couple of years ago.

I purchased Mojave Tharp users a 3/8” drive impact wrench to raise and lower the machine effortlessly

Man I'm telling you. You have a future in voice over commercials. I came for information.... I stayed for the 1 liners... "so smooth". Well done buddy, very entertaining

looks great!!!

Super nice mower floor jack so much nicer the. The Harbor Freight Model the red is sweet also @ToolReviewZone

It sells for $148 CAD at Home Depot Canada. Got it delivered yesterday but am returning it as soon as the store is open again. The bar that holds the tire saddles is sitting too high for my Ryobi riding mower.

Great vid.

I have had my Mojack lift for years. I can’t kill the thing. I wish it would break so I could buy this one! They make great products!

Yo Clint! $200? Whaaaaa? That walking cane of a jack handle, alone, is worth it! God bless, TRZ! 😁👍

Sir good video, one safety step you should do first after putting it on the lift. You strap your wheels down first. This locks them in place as you lift, no chance of rolling off the lift when raising it. Some say it won't but, it has happen on other lift units. Why take the chance. O by the way we own three of these units they are great.

I've found it easier to just remove the deck. You can clean it, check your pulleys, check the belt, remove and sharpen blades if necessary, make sure everything is functioning properly, etc.

best review.

I have friends that have those mowers I need to tell them to pick up one they use a regular lift

I bought one of those three years ago. The bottle was faulty because the O ring wasn't set properly so MoJack sent me a new bottle. I fixed the original bottle and kept using it but it took forever to pump it up. I recently replaced the bottle with the replacement but it also takes forever, literally about 15 minutes to get to the second height lock. Should I just buy another bottle perhaps with better specs? It's a terrific well made lift if the botttle would work properly

Whats it like to for further service like Drive Belt replacing , geting to the Pto , pull under the motor etc. Etc. ?

That's the one I have and I love it. I'll never even have to take my mower deck off which is a major pain in the butt.

Way better buddy!👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

That Mojack is super Nice 👌I like it very sweet @ToolReviewZone

A much simpler manual jack that is even faster to use and doesn't rely on hydraulics is the Jungle Jim mower jack. Costs about the same, too. 👍👍👍

how about mowers with Center mounted anti scalping wheel is there any problem getting the mower on the jack

Watched the other video didn’t realize how bad it was.I actually have one of those still in the box thinking about returning it to harbor freight if possible.

Can I use jack stands with this just to be extra safe?

Superior over that other brand. Nice and smooth like

Will this work on a grass hopper zero turn to lift the deck up co change the blades?

I service mowers and have this Jack. I like it but that stupid pin on the release post keeps falling out. I’ve had mine a few years so maybe they changed the design but the pin falling out all the time is a pain. Other than that I love the Jack and use it often.

They work great till the bottle jack fails, like mine. Looking for solutions. That's why I'm here. Good luck.

Damn I was excited to get one these after watching the video. Now these things cost $380 bucks good lord. FJB

The way the front of the jack is designed, once the mower is fully raised, there doesn't appear to be much open area under the mower to allow for easier access to the blades and underside linkages. Is this an issue or no?

Best lawn mower jack ever.

WHAT DOES IT COST AND WHERE CAN IT BE OBTAINED IN THE CZECH REBUBLIK

@Tool Review Zone. I see your problem @0:05 Clint. You upset the Makita gnome and he took off with your battery. I guess you or your twin brother really upset him long ago. How about making amends with the Makita gmome? Seriously, great review. I'll have to keep this jack in mind. It's great that your followers help each other out. Let us know how the jack hold up in a future video. Hope you and your family stay safe and well.

I checked on-line for the weight of your mower, and it looks to be about 410+ pounds. I have a very old JD 345 with a 54" cutting deck. The listed weight is well over 900 lbs. This lift is capable of lifting 500 pounds on the front, but I doubt it would safely lift and support my JD. I loved your review, but I might need somethng more substantial.

Some people might could save that kind of cost if they have a sturdy swing set in the yard. Just pull up under it and pick it up with a cheap little hoist. Raise the frame higher if if you want the mower stood on end.

Will this lift the back end of a 72 inch zero turn?

Sold me! Great review! Thanks!

I'm just going to build the wheel lift part for my automotive floor jack and save myself a bunch of moeny.

How would that work for a front mower like a John deer F525

So maybe I missed it - but do you mention that you need to unlock the transmission on many mowers to use a jack like this? Because this jack stays fixed and the mower needs to move forward as it raises and if the transmission isn’t released it will at minimum drag the rear wheels and at worst damage your transmission. With a trolley jack or something entirely on wheels it doesn’t matter because the jack moves, following the arc of movement.

Can I use this jack on a z mower z345 John Deere?

Looks great. I just checked the price on this. Just 3 years later and it is now $130 more expensive. 😐

Mine slams to the ground without mower on top of it. Is that normal?

Unfortunately harbor freight says 90 days with receipt or two years with extended warranty. Didn’t get the extended warranty .😭

We're to buy one

I have a 2021 Craftsman T240 turn tight tractor the Actual weight is 630 pounds not 590 so I need a Jack like this

This might be a stupid question, but is this safe to use on the ground, like in the yard? I have a gravel driveway. Do I need a hard surface, like concrete or asphalt?

HDL 500 is $329.00 at Home Depot now.

1yr later…. How’s it holding up? Do you still like it more than the one from harbor freight?

Looking for a mower jack. Harbor Freight just lost a sale.

I didn't hear it mentioned in the video, but a good protocol for safety is to always remove the spark plug wires when working near the mower blades.

Quick release pin vice cotter pin.

I am shocked that you did not tell us the widths This Jack can accommodate. Can I do a 48? Can you do a 54? Only a 42?

500lbs is that strong enough for 60in zero turn?

Well, a "couple hundred bucks" is now, 3 years later, $379.

It’s vey bad ass I have one great price

Think I put 200.00 in a jack would rather have electric hoist Northern sale 99.00 500 lbs limit. And your favorite Habor Freight too.

Looks like it might be awkward to access the center blade

Yo TRZ!!

I have this and it’s a waste of money for a zero turn. The center wheels on the deck of the mower make it hard to load the machine on to the jack. The jack keeps sliding back when the center wheels on the deck hit the cross bar.

🍻🍺

Same as Harbor freight's except twice the price!

$200!?!? OUCH!!!!

350 USD, I dont think so. Used my floor jack, same results

This jack looks awesome, but it's out of stock at this time.

Or just use two jack stands and a roll jack

Bought one of those jacks, the jack was trash, harbor freight

Can it lift my friends mother-in-law, so we can carry her to the woods while shes asleep?

Ha.....I just throw my 3 ton jack under the back and chock the front wheels. Save your money.

Bad news. You paid $200? Currently at Home Depot Oct 2023 the cost is $380.

$379

$200 my a$$. It’s 329.

Zero turn does not work with this. Mower deck hits jack center frame on mower and you cannot drivev on. No good for 0 turn!!
