I find myself in need of a bottle jack. Does anyone have any recommendations? I know nothing about the things excepts they have a small footprint.

Haven't used a bottle jack in ages. I assume you want to lift an SUV, right?

I need it to use on my 4 post lift. I have a center rolling jack but its not able to reach the correct contact points. I want a bottle jack to have extra flexibility.

I would try to get an adapter to use the rolling jack on the lift to reach the lift points on the car.
balancing a car on a lift, on a bottle jack seems like asking for trouble.
ever see a car that fell off a lift? not pretty.

Always use jack stands with any floor lift
