  • I need a new floor jack

    Someone ruined my Lincoln 2 1/2 ton floor jack. I heard the new Lincoln jack aren't very good.

    Anyone got any suggestions?

    Is there any way you can rebuild the cylinder ?if that is whats wrong)
    or I have one I bought at Advance Auto about 10 years ago and it still works fine paid about 6o bucks
    for it I think they are still about that price!

          this weekend, i used an ATV/motorcycle jack to take out a tranny. they are light, low to the ground and have a large surface area. maybe not as a first line jack, but they are a great second jack to have around.

            Thank you Mr Freiburger, that page is excellent!
            I too am in the market for a good jack.
            While it would be cool to have a Milwaukee Model 20 jack that would match nicely with the (Kenosha) Model 20 rear axle in my javelin, that’s a bunch of ca$h for a home shop. There are a couple of NORCO jacks on that page that cost about $200 that look like a great value and will likely be the rout I will go.
            Cheers
            Mike.

                I wish thats all it was. They jacked up the front of their trailer to load their car, then jumped in the truck and tried to drive away. Twisted the frame so on;y three wheels are on the ground and it won't go all the way down.

                  May I point out that that site is quite over priced.
                  Shop around is what I'll suggest.
                  I paid no where near US$615.
