The 2 1/4 ton jack will work just fine. You
only intend to lift one wheel at a time, don't you? Imperials do tend to
be a bit nose heavy, but even then, you can probably lift the whole front of the
car without damaging the jack. Naturally, you do not want to crawl under
there with only a hydraulic jack holding it up, but it is better than a bumper
jack for changing a tire, on the side of the road, in the dark, and
rain.
Just to increase your comfort
level, the ratings include a small safety factor. That 2 1/4 ton jack is
probably physically capable of lifting the whole 5,200 lb load without breaking,
if you could find a way to balance it. NOT A RECOMMENDED
PROCEEDURE.
