None of our major suppliers carry a C-5 jack.  Our customers who have taken off the run flats seem to agree that the best solution is a C-4 jack and the C-5 "pucks". 

C-4 jacks are available in reproduction for about $80, plus $25 for the handle.  You can probably find a used one for less.  C-5 pucks are about $70 a set of four.

If someone finds a C-5 jack, I would like to hear about it.

Well I just bought a real nice Dodge Stratus jack and handle for $10.00 at the salvage yard. I have some hocky pucks comming from Ebay for $5.00 and I bought new zinc coated eyes for $2.00. I picked up a new air compressor and a bottle of Slime for $9.00.

I have a nice table cloth to lay down to work. I am going to Wally World later to get the right size tote box for the stuff to fit into the rear compartments and I am done.

Should have a nice set for less than $30.00. It won't be all GM /Corvette stuff but that is okay with me.

Some folks can't run the Slime in the rims because of the tire sensors. I don't have the sensors in my Z06 rims. If I did I would use my T handle tire repair kit exclusively.

Just to add to the thought process.... Here is another very nice jack that works great...... BENZ JACK I took one like this out of my dads car and it is very nice.

I tried to buy this one yesterday but had some computer update problems at the exact same time. So needless to say it didn't work out.

I tried the C4 jack from a car that I sold to a friend later in the day and liked it better because of the scissor design. It fits my comfort zone better. (It had the nice bag Joel, black vinyl with the Corvette script on it.) That car is a 93....Here is a pic of one for sale on EBAY C4 JACK
