Anyone have a catalog of ground support equipment that show aircraft jacks? Looking to figure out the correct ones for the Fairchild, so I can start watching for them. I can find commercial ones, but they are way over the weight capacity that I need.

Commercial ones will be better, more use and don't forget you could lease them out.

Problem with commercial jacks is that I would have to go to a wing jack that's 4 times the capacity that I need to get the roll under height for the airplane. I only need 6 ton capacity with a roll under height of about 72". To get the height limit, I would have to go to a 25 ton jack, with the commensurate massive price differential. The current 7 ton units have a roll under height of about 116".
