    Gary,
    I think they may be selling the old pneumatic bumper jacks that we used to see before energy absorbing bumpers and frame jacking points became the norm, something like this? I wouldn't get under anything supported by one of them, much less two of them lifting an entire car! Getting it in the air is OK, but then you'd need some tall stands with stable bases, IMO.
