Where to get floor jack repaired.

Hey Guys, my floor jack had a brazilian blowout last night, before I trust this thing to lift my truck again (always with a jack stand... but still). I wanted to see if it were possible to have it rebuilt somewhere locally? It has also been making the loudest squeak for the past few weeks, I feel horrible for my neighbors.


I am in south orange county.

 

You could probably get one cheaper at harbor freight than it would be to pay some one to fix that one. My dad had a FJ go bad and he checked into getting new seals and he said he could just buy a new one for less. Doesent really answer you question just my .02.

 

I will get the number and address for the place my buddy uses to rebuild his jacks.

 

Must be a very special floorjack...

 

x2 looks old. my dad gave me his and it busted so i fixed it instead of trashing it. sentimental value kind of deal i guess.?

 

A floor jack would be the last thing i'd buy at harbor freight.

 

I can respect that

 

we have one, works just fine. have lifted cars/trucks. atv’s people. a trailer. idk what all els. have had it prob 6 years maybe more.

 

The HF jack is a pretty nice jack I have had one for years and it's never failed me. It's sure better then the walmart special the OP has.

I've had a craftsman just about take my thumbs off

 

Geez, there is no emotional attachment, just thought it might be cheaper to repair it than throw it out. I don't mind a HF jack because I would never work under a car without jack stands anyways, I just need something reliable and that lifts high enough.

HF 3 ton maxes out at 18" -$89.99
HF 4 ton maxes out at 20" -$129.99

Which do you guys suggest for a Tacoma.

 

personly i get the 4 ton. in case you need it. i’d rather have it and not need than need and not have.

 

Get the one from Costco if it's for the garage. It's $99 and lasts, and covered under the Costco Warranty.

I have a Harbor Freight jack also and its a good lightweight jack to carry in the truck, but I wouldn't use it as a main jack.
