Big RED ATR6501UR Torin 48" Ratcheting Off Road Utility Farm Jack: 3 Ton (6,000 lb) Capacity, Blue

What It Is

The Big RED ATR6501UR Torin is a 48-inch ratcheting off-road utility farm jack with a 3-ton (6,000 lb) capacity, designed for lifting, winching, clamping, and pulling heavy equipment. It’s intended for lawn tractors, zero-turn mowers, ATVs, UTVs, farm machinery, and off-road vehicles—not for standard walk-behind mowers.

Fitment & Compatibility

Before buying, check these specifics:

• Lift point access: The jack requires a solid, flat lift point (e.g., axle, frame rail, or mower deck bracket) that can support 6,000 lbs. Most residential lawn tractors and zero-turns weigh under 1,000 lbs, so capacity is overkill but usable.
• Deck clearance: The jack’s base is 5.5” x 5.5”, and the saddle hook is 1.5” wide. Ensure you can slide it under your mower’s frame or deck without hitting blades, spindles, or belts.
• No universal fit: This is an aftermarket jack—no OEM direct replacement. It works on any machine with a compatible lift point, but not all mowers have one. Check your owner’s manual for jacking points.
• Measurements: Overall height is 48” fully extended, collapsed height is 46”. The travel range is about 24” per ratchet cycle. Verify your mower’s ground clearance and lift height needs.

Key Things to Know

• Build quality: Steel construction with a powder-coated finish. Holds 6,000 lbs static, but rated for 3 tons—adequate for most mowers, but heavy for frequent portable use.
• Installation difficulty: No installation required; just assemble the handle and pins (5 minutes). Operation requires learning the ratcheting mechanism—practice before using on a machine.
• Common gotchas: The jack is heavy (approx. 30 lbs) and can tip if not positioned on stable ground. The ratchet pawl can slip if not fully engaged—always double-check lock position. Not meant for quick lifting; cycles are slow.
• Safety: Use on level, hard surfaces only. Never lift a mower with the deck or plastic parts. Always use jack stands after lifting.

Should You Buy It

Buy this if you need a heavy-duty, multi-purpose jack for lifting lawn tractors, zero-turns, or ATVs for maintenance, tire changes, or deck removal. It’s overbuilt for most residential mowers, but the durability and 6,000-lb capacity make it a solid choice for larger equipment. Skip it if you only need a lightweight, portable jack for a small push mower—look for a 1-ton scissor or bottle jack instead.
