I have two harbor freight jacks and one craftsman. All are aluminum. The C-man jack sucks. Needs to be bled all the time or it won't pump up. The HF jacks rule!

I have the one in the OP and it just gave out after the warranty was up. Started leaking fluid everywhere. I'm kinda pissed, as I don't use the jack that often, so this was the 10th use or so.-tim

As far as I can remember, this happened to ours as well. It was a long time ago but as far as I can remember we just replaced and o-ring and it was good to go. Hope that helps!Comment

I was looking at that one and it's 3.5" minimum. I was thinking about getting

It goes lower and holds more weight, but with that price it makes me think it might be shitty quality.
Edit: D'oh, I just realized that one is not aluminum. Not sure I really need one though.
And to answer my own question, I found out there IS a Harbor Freight in Sacramento.
Or maybe it was a message about the wars in Africa?Last edited by Surtr; 12-10-2009, 08:43 AM.'07 Female Miniature Dachshund, Long Hair Edition, Red.

I have the AC Hydraulics DK20Q, with a height of only 80mm, it fit under my slammed E30 effortlessly. Sometimes i had to put it up on a 2x4, depending on work surface.

Capacity is 4400 pounds i believe....
And I also have 2 sets of these:

I have a huge jack i got from costco. They did not have any aluminum ones so the one i got weighs 80-90lbs. Thinking about getting the HF jack just so i don't have to lug mine around.Your signature picture has been removed since it contained the Photobucket "upgrade your account" image.
