AGM’s $100 Scissor Jack is a No-Brainer for Your SXS or UTV

A Jack Built for the Off-Road Life

AGM dropped a new tool into the off-road world, and it’s one of those “why didn’t this exist sooner?” products. Meet the AGM Scissor Jack—rated to lift 2,000 pounds, purpose-built for UTVs and side-by-sides, and coming in at just a hundred bucks.

This jack is designed for the trail—compact enough to stash in your rig, yet strong enough to handle the unexpected.

First Impressions: Smart Design, Solid Build

Straight out of the box, this thing impresses. The packaging is on point (as expected from AGM), but what really stands out is the wide base plate. It gives you a stable platform, even on soft or uneven ground—perfect for trail fixes or desert repairs.

There’s a built-in carry strap, a cradle for your A-arm or jack point, and a few smart tool options that make it way more versatile than your average scissor jack.

Tool Options That Make Sense

What really sets this jack apart is how you can operate it:

  • Drill adapter works with any standard drill
  • Manual crank is included just in case your batteries are dead

We tested all three, and while the impact is obviously the fastest, the manual crank is easier than expected. You won’t dread using it in a pinch.

Field-Tested on a Long-Travel Rig

We tried this jack on a long-travel Polaris Xpedition with 32s—heavier than your average UTV setup. Still, the AGM Scissor Jack had no problem lifting a corner off the ground quickly with an impact.

Even manually, it got the job done without a struggle. If you’re dealing with a flat on the trail and forgot to charge your tools, this jack still has your back.

Final Thoughts on the AGM Scissor Jack: Worth Every Penny

Let’s break it down:

  • 2,000 lb capacity
  • Drill or manual operation
  • Wide base for off-road stability
  • Compact and easy to pack
  • $100 price point

This is the kind of tool you don’t think twice about adding to your kit. It’s reliable, adaptable, and honestly underpriced for what it offers.
