I recently bought a Ford Explorer, but it didn’t come with a jack. I need to buy one, but I don’t know the truck’s weight. Can you tell me the Ford Explorer Sport weight, so I can buy the right one?
Based on some research, a Ford Explorer Sport weighs just over 6,100 pounds (depending on the year and trim).
When buying a jack, you should look for one rated for at least three-quarters of your vehicle’s weight. For example, based on the weight of your truck, which is about two-and-a-quarter tons, you’d need a jack rated for two tons (generally, they come in one-and-a-half, two, and three-ton ratings).
I hope this information helps!
While you’re shopping for a new jack, why not shop for new
will handle the phone calls, paperwork, and renewals for your top pick so that you don’t have to. They can even help cancel your old policy! So why do all that extra work when Jerry can do it better?
