What brand and size of jack do you guys recommend?

When I had put my springs on this summer I bought a cheap 2 ton jack and tried to jack from the front up to put jackstands at the jack points. The jack got as high as it could, and that still wasn't enough to put the jack stands under. It then broke, and hydrolic fluid made a puddle in my FIANCE's parents driveway.

Yeah that's right. I got engaged this weekend! woot!!!
