floor jack and jack stands

[Stephend]

what capcity floor jack would you need to raise the back of a 751 bobcat and what capcity jack stand would you need, the 751 is listed to weigh 4777 pounds.

3 tons would do it but I like to use at least double capacity so I would go with 6 ton. I also prefer wood cribbing for support instead of jack stands.

A 3 ton would be fine. I like to use 6 ton stands in the back and 3 ton in the front. Personally I don't like using wood blocking on bobcats. Any other brand has a flat bottom and wood blocking works great on those.
