I was going to throw away my craftsman hydraulic jack away , but after watching this video I'm rebuilding my jack .
Me too. I have several laying around the shop I can now rebuild.
Same here. Got the same one and I was about to trash it until I saw this.
Were you ever able to find the correct seal kit?
I cannot believe it, I finally found someone rebuilding something and talking about what he is doing,
Totally agree, and it's not done at an impressive lightning speed!
Go check out mustie 1 on utube for more rebuilding stuff. He's great
And he wasn't "restoring" it, just a reseal which is all you need, that is if you actually plan on using it.
Thank you for taking the time to make that video. I got an identical jack that recently quit working from my grandfather. The rebuild is going to be easier than I expected with the help of this video.
ХХХ то
Realize the video is four years old, but this majorly helped me to do basic maintenance / repair on a 70's Orange and White jack that looks very similar. Dad has had it since before me; the release valve stopped releasing. Got it apart, cleaned, and back to working with new fluid. Thank you for your detailed descriptions and hard work :)
I recommend using a thin coat of the hydraulic jack oil on all o-rings and seals as a assembly lube. Do not contaminate the hyd. system with other products. Thanks
very important,,,,, never reassemble DRY
Absolutely important. I was cringing the whole time.
@@bobg7288 never contaminate it with Vaseline from 1984. Hydraulic fluid ONLY!
Nowadays there's particular "O"ring lube in the market
Contamination is not an issue. Use what ever is handy
Nice work. You made it look easy, but there’s a lot of experience in those hands. Nice garage setup, nice tools, and a really nice car!
Thank you Ken!!☺
Great video. I once bought a similar floor jack like yours dirt cheap because it leaked down, the fix was very simple, ran a magnet down into the seat of the check ball, pulled out a tiny metal shaving. Jack worked fine after. Easier and cheaper to try the magnet fix before rebuilding
What do you buy the gaskets at
Great video. I've got an old Sears jack I got from my grandpa's garage after he recently passed. It hasn't worked in about a year, same issue as yours. I've got the rebuild kit coming and am confident I can do it after watching your video. Thank you!
I had a bottle jack , about 20 ton , from the 1930's that my grandfather used on dump trucks rebuilt about 25 years ago . It still works !
Thanks for the video. I have my father's 5 ton bottle Jack that is probably 45 years old. The local cylinder shop refused to rebuild it. "It's cheaper to buy a new one" was their answer. Now I can rebuild it myself. Thanks!
Finally, a real jack rebuild and not just a Krylon paint job. Thanks. Also, thanks for showing all the newbies what it means to put packing under a workpiece held in a vise.
Excellent video. You're right in that the outer seals are wipers to keep contamination from getting inside the pump, so they are installed with the cup facing out. I have the same jack and I'll be rebuilding it this weekend. Thanks for the tutorial.
Nice fix! New Harbor Freight Junk Jack vs rebuilding a Better piece of equipment and learning a valuable skill in the process..... REBUILD wins any day of the week.
Thanks Moe!! I paid to have my other jack rebuilt 45 years ago and it's still going strong, so that should be the last time I have to touch this one!!☺
We have 2 of those old jacks that sit in the corner. Say what you will about most of the crap at HF the 2 aluminum jacks we got get used and abused in the shop and keep coming back for more. When your moving the heavy things around all day it gets old real fast.
I have a floor jack like that, way heavy need to have steel toes on when lifting up to my truck incase it drop on my foot. As for Harbor Freight, the Daytona looks pretty good, fast pump and low profile, good ratings and goes head to head against Snap-on jack where they copied the design from.
One of my jacks looks almost exactly like that one, and with the same problem. Gonna order a kit and rebuild mine as well. I used to work at a place called Deer Park Hydraulic on Long Island rebuilding cylinders many yrs ago. I'll never forget the skills I learned in that place.
805ROADKING wear you buy the part
You really can’t beat the quality of these old floor jacks 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Indeed
Yeah Buddy!! ☺
one of the best videos I have ever watched you did not tell me about your wife your kids the grass how long you've had the Jack when you bought it none of this other stuff you were right to the point great video. Easy to follow along and mine works perfectly after the rebuild thanks.
I just rebuilt my 20+ year old Sears 3 ½ ton floor jack. This video helped me understand what I had to do. My main problem was with the big seal at the tip of the shaft for the piston. I didn't mess with all the other smaller o-rings and screws with ball bearings underneath. Thanks for putting this together. Now I have my old heavy jack that I use again. Safety thought: when I first noticed that my jack was no longer working well, I had just lifted up my car to change a wheel. When I went back 5 minutes later to put the new wheel on, I saw that the rotor was very low on the ground. I don't even want to think of having someone (me?) working under the car while this happened.
When I was working after school in a garage (long ago) an old mechanic told me to never trust a hydraulic jack. He said to always use jack stands and pointed to a car across the shop floor which was up on a floor jack and no stands. Amazingly, the jack suddenly lost pressure and the car fell back onto the floor. Thankfully nobody was under it. That stark lesson has remained with me.
Always have a back-up jack stand or log under the frame!
Your video made me go out and clean my floor jack-It’s a Sears Model too and identical -I bought it in1983 and has lot of sentimental value-lol!!!...great work and video!!!!!!!!
Our too....1981 I think. Now we have four of them
I
This actually helped me get my jack working again, somehow.
Mine is completely different but just watching someone take it apart helped give me an idea.
I realized I had opened something I shouldn't have and a part fell out.
I took another look and sure enough I found a tiny piston lodged in a crack in the jack.
Used the magnet trick with an awl to get the piston and spring in the correct position.
Jack is now working good as new.
The oil was low which was I took it apart in the first place but I opened the wrong part and the manual doesn't actually tell you what to do.
The manual even labels every part except the holes... go figure.
Wipers are used for keeping debris from entering the area. Seals are usually installed with the open end towards the pressure side so they will expand during pressure making a tighter seal. There's always a chance that the previous seal was installed backwards. If you get a leak, flip it over.
Your video is the most detailed one I've seen about rebuilding hydraulic floor jacks.
I believe in life long tool ownership, so I buy as high a quality as I can afford, and this is the kind of video that reinforces my mindset. You can't rebuild garbage tools, not without access to machine tools or something excessive like that. Thank you for taking the time to make this video and to give an explanation along the way.
Thanks for putting your crescent wrench the proper way to break it. I see so many push against the small, moving jaw.
Remember, your never to OLD to learn something, Thanks,i can see all those old jacks coming back to life , mine too.. Thanks
Add to it the fact that it keeps you busy and out of the fridge...
@@bvnseven LOL!
Wwwby.
Well, I finally found a use for my dads old 24” adjustable wrench. Great video👍
No no him look by my noi by hi it
Nice work I have my Grandads jack that I used to work with him in the shop when I was a Kid. I have had it since he passed away and it needs rebuilding. My wife always asks me why I keep it and it means the world to me. I can't wait to rebuild it now. It is from the early sixties and look forward to having it work like it did 25 years ago! Thanks for making the video.
Citadel Tactical blunder
Great video! I have a Sears jack about the same age that I'm getting ready to rebuild. Thanks for taking the time to make this video.
Thanks Bud!!☺
I thought at first that I was seeing things. I have the EXACT same jack, and I've been using it on a regular basis since I bought it back in the early 1970's. That thing has lifted every one of the nearly one dozen cars and trucks I've owned or used over the last four plus decades. Next best thing to a full sized lift.
Excellent video! Thanks!
Thanks Bud!!☺
Great work man. I Cut my teeth on floor jacks just like that. Back in the 70's too. Brings back memories!
The screw, spring and pintle are an over pressure relief valve. Thanks for the video. Good job👍
Ken, Do you know what the approx. setting is on that pressure relief screw? Thankyou Sir
@@GRAYSTAW 8 full turns on mine, which was about one turn past where the spring started to engage.
Thank you for the great info! I found an old jack on craigslist recently just after watching this video! I am saving so much money and its fun to rebuild it as well! Cool stuff!
Can you tell me where to find the rebuild kit for this jack?
I have a Sears 2 ton floor jack from 1989. Still works but now I have the confidence to rebuild it thanks to your video! Oh...and a large crescent wrench has saved my ass more than once!!
You have inspired me to rebuild my old jack, it died on me a few years ago. Thanks for the video, enjoy all the engines as well.
Using my favorite hammer!! I've used this body hammer for years as a precision adjuster for seals, etc. Works perfectly!! Nice job!!
I love this video! Thank you so much for making it. You included everything needed to know with clear instructions, audio and editing. So good!
Thanks Bud!!☺
You are awesome. I bought a 2.5 ton japanese jack just like yours on my 14th birthday for my first car restoration. I knew someday someone would teach me how to fix it. I am now 50yrs old. I am starting my rebuild on it. Thank you.
Thanks you for making this video. I'm a young mechanic trying to make do with what I got and this video has given me the insight to repair my old jack instead of replacing it. Thank you 😁
that BLUE PLUNGER WAS ALL THAT WAS NEEDED !! the black one was whooped fyi . thanks for the video iwas very good I have a bunch od Lincoln and Walker jacks from the 70's and have rebuilt them and this is the type of info our kids need. you know our 30 and 40 year old kids. Thanks again.
I love that. Yes there are 30 & 40 year old kids who could learn a thinga 2.
Joe Shabidu Keep rockin', Every repair is a confidence builder, and you're never done. Recent additions to building skills- trigger spring on a top-break revolver, patch plastic ends of radiator with epoxy. The stuff was broke anyway, I dont think much more harm could be done, if the fix didn't work. Best wishes!
I have an old Blue Walker with the yellow one piece handle from the 70's I had rebuilt in a jack shop. Just sent the pump in.
Good work, I see them every week dropped off at scrap yard! I have 3 now and they are way better than any other jacks I have used!
I have it for 50 years , been rebuilt. 2 years , now it's as good as new , & 80% still has original color
I have a "Big Lots" Chinese jack from 1980, $29.95, WAY before Harbor Freight, with the same leaking oil problem. You have inspired me to try a repair later on...thanks! I'm rebuilding power window motor gears now, all learned on CZcams.
Thanks for this video. Just finished rebuilding my Sears jack. Works like new.
To remove the lip-seal from the pump plunger hole, use a thin-blade putty knife. A sharp round corner on the putty knife, and some gentle taps with a hammer, will allow the edge of the putty knife to go between the lip-seal metal rim and the hole wall. Then, pry out with a screwdriver.
The lip seal is installed with the lip up. It wipes the push rod to keep it clean. The o-ring seal (and its nylon backing ring), further in the hole, contains the pressure produced by the push (pump) rod.
A good lesson in parts management and taking note of the number of rotations to remove those valves. Wish I had done that!
Nice job on the rebuild. I have been in the automobile repair business for over 45 years and still use my floor jacks. Never had to rebuild them but was always curious on what was inside of one. I found this video extremely interesting. Nice catch on that pressure regulator. I might guess that's the safety valve to keep from overlifting the jack and damaging it. But the process seemed pretty simple that you did here. I also liked your style of systematically rebuilding each section and also I liked the fact that you put that paper towel down in that cavity to keep trash out. You're truly a professional.
Thanks again for taking your time to make this video. Nice job!!
Thanks alot, we appreciate your comment!!☺
Got the same adjustable wrench i inherited from my Dad . Love that thing !
Got an old Sears jack I've had since I was a teenager it has the same problem so thanks to your video maybe I can do the same rebuild. Thanks for sharing.
Were you able to get the seal kit for it? I have an old sears jack that is 30 years old. Still OK but I might get seal kit before Sears is extinct. Please advise.
THANX
Most major cities have a seal supplier. Google your city. Take the seals to them and they will match what you need. I rebuild a hydraulic cylinder and the complete seal package was $9.
@@shoeleh07 Good idea. THANX. Uncle Google to the rescue.
you are the first person who did a repair and not a restoration and who actually do show it step by step
Thanks.
It was educational
Thanks for the instructions. Just finished rebuilding mine. I had it for over 30 years and just needed new seal and o rings. Thanks!!!
I knew he was the real McCoy after spotting his aerosol can of KROIL on his workbench!!
I like how you edit your videos. You skip the BS and get right back on it.
Great job , glad you were able to save it . Great quality jack .
thanks for the video, encouraged me to rebuild my 1980's craftsman 2 ton jack.
it's back together and working great.
Awesome work!!! I love the vintage tools! I would have went with scraping the old paint and give it a new coat lol
Excellent video. My old floor jack leaks down all the the time so as a consequence it has sat in the corner of my shed for 15 years. I'm going to go to a bearing shop and see if I can get the seals to rebuild it. Looking forward to this project and thanks very much!
I'm using a USA made Black Hawk floor jack from the '60s, may need a rebuild, needs fluid again. I love that thing because you don't have to put the handle up all the way to get it to jack, unlike the newer ones. If it is deep under a low car, even a few inches of the handle will raise it up quickly.
Thanks for making this. I have what is likely the same exact jack that I got from my dad when he had to move into a nursing home. When I first started working on cars around 1980, it was the jack that we used and I am thrilled to be able to continue to use it probably 45 years after he bought it. It has a slow leak and I was wondering if I could rebuild it, now I know I can. We are closing on a house in about a week and this will be one of my first projects.
Thank you, I started having problems with my jack and now they are solved
A lot of people just don't understand that things can be repaired, not everything is disposable.
Yeah Buddy!! ☺
that's why louis rossman is fighting for our legal right to repair our stuff!
Tengo.uno.igual..lo.mismo.tiene.nenesita.los.enpaques
During World war II, on the Home Front, you either repaired it or did without.
Unfortunately, we have created the disposable era beginning in the '70's.
28 years ago I got a harbor tool and equipment jack just like that and a set of 6 ton stands from my parent's as a Christmas present. As a matter of fact I just got done using it and put it away about 10 minutes ago. Had my Altima up on stands and took the tires and rims to Walmart for a new set of tires.
Best gift I ever received!
She seems a bit slow so I'll be doing this rebuild in the near future.
Thanks for sharing. It took about 3 beers to get through this video BTW.
Good job. My Dad bought me the same back in 1974 @ SEARS/ROEBUCK store in No Dartmouth,Mass. Just used it last nite to remove my winter Brighstone tires (Snowtires) Still works like a charm. Thanks A Lot.
I have the same jack and it's time for the same service. Thanks for sharing !
Another bleeding method is to jack it up and keep pumping the handle. That pumps the fluid through getting the air out.
Bought mine new in 1978 and it started leaking last year. I just replaced the main seal but also lubed the wheels and it works as well as it did then. This is a heavy 1 1/2 ton jack as you noted and this will out live me. You video was the most complete, thanks.
Excellent video. As a relocated NYer now living in NC, I enjoyed hearing you explain what you were doing. As for the 24" crescent wrench, here they call that a West Virginia socket set!!
Good to know! I have vintage 3ton all cast 1945 Blackhawk floor jack that I'm going to restore, its a beauty!
Blackhawk floor jacks are King. I still have several from my 'Dad's Body shop from the 50's
Thanks Roadking, I've got a old Sears Craftsman floor jack and I just got the rebuild kit. Your video helps a ton...Thanks !
If it's an old sears jack its made by Blackhawk or Heinwarner.
Were did you get the rebuild kit
Where did you get the kit
Safety TIP for jack users, when you lower the jack, tighten the handle so its immediately ready to jack up again, example, you jack up your car, you let it down onto some safety stands, one stand slips out and that part of the car falls some, you are ready to jack fast in case of a problem, been there, done that. DO NOT use your jack only, put something else under the car for safety, even the wheel and tire you may have pulled off. As you can see, it only takes a blown seal to allow the jack to come crashing down. Awesome video, time for me to order my rebuild kit.
PERFECT video mate. I have the exact same jack, so far its working well but I'll rebuild it anyway and this video is a great help. Thanks for sharing.
Excellent how-to video presentation with attention to the details. I own a vintage craftsman jack to rebuild. Been using it quite a bit these months and noticed that it isn't performing, as it should. This video gives me the confidence to do such a tasking. Thank you, sir!
Me too, I'm going to rebuild my Craftsman now as soon as I find the right kit. That jack worked great for probably 30 years before it started leaking. Built like a brick outhouse. Haven't looked at it for a while now. Hopefully it still has the model/serial number on it.
Nice, woke up to this playing and was one of the things I was meaning to learn.
}
Ha! That happens to me all the time! 👍🏼
Brilliant video. I've had an old jack that hasn't worked properly for years. This is just what I needed to help me rebuild it. Thanks
My identical jack still works fine, I just couldn’t stop watching. You’re so organized, efficient, intelligent, thoughtful, and...I’m gonna think of some more adjectives...”I’ll get back at ya.” Great job! Thank you!
Love it when you pull out the 24 inch crescent wrench... holy cow! Thanks
Great job ..
I use to rebuild these jacks back if the 70s & 80s, and let me say they were good jacks .
The crap coming out of China , well you know .
Hine Warner was a good Jack, Sears actually sold this jack in different lifting capacity with the SEARS logo .
Also Lincoln was a vere reliable floor jack, same as the Walker well back in the 50s .
This junk thats available today is use it and throw it away when it falls ....
The old school of rebuilding things are a thing of the past anymore....
Thank you for posting this video, brought back many memories...
Thanks Bud!!☺
Great vid thanks for tapeing the process, i have a sears my dad had for years i thought i would fix and now i can.
WOW! Big Thank You! At my age, I finally learned how to rebuild a jack. You did a super job of showing and explaining and I appreciate your effort. Back when, we had a guy we used to bring them to and we had two top brands (WALKER) was one of them. Anyway, you did a good job that any of us can understand, relate to and learn from. Thank you again! Sonny (CT)
Thanks alot Bud!!☺
Thank you for the complete break down of rebuilding your floor jack. I definately don't know a lot when it comes to rebuilding these jacks, but I would of been inclined to keep the seals that were made of stainless steel and just replaced the rubber seals and grommets. I believe that is what makes a good ole fashioned jack from the 70's and before compared to one you get at Harbor Freight. I know the steel is thick and the bolts and nuts and everything it is made of is stronger, but that also includes the internals, all but the rubber parts and maybe some springs or even the copper washers that would need to be replaced after 20 or so years.
Thanks again for the video and God bless bro.
Great video! Thanks for taking the time to film, edit and post this. There still are a lot of us tinker’ers out here who love these kind of tasks.
I have this exact same jack under the “Matco” tool label. It’s been a go-to piece of my home shop for over 20 years. It started pumping up about a third of the way normally, then the strokes become less and less productive until the pumps are barely a flick of up movement. I thought it was a just low on fluid, but topping off the oil didn’t cure the issue. It holds weight as designed, but takes a lot of mini strokes to get the wheels off the ground of most cars.
I dread pulling it apart because I know it’s going to look like a clock made out of rubber seals in there. I’d like to find exactly what valve or area of the jack is causing this defect and only open and repair that area, as the rest of the pump works good. I don’t want to fix something that ain’t broke in another area of operation and cause a new problem that isnt there.
What patients!!!!
Honestly with this kind of repair, you usually end up find out one problem after another just chasing down "that one valve". Best just to get a kit and swap everything that you can. You already have the thing open and drained anyhow
JohnnyP414 is right, like it or not. The first thing people need to learn is that they have a lot to learn,
Thank you for taking the time to put this together. I'm sure so many of us will benefit from your work and positive attitude. God bless!
Thanks Bud!!☺
I picked up mine like that in the mid 80's and in the late 2,000's the main internal ram seal split. Matched it up at a hydraulic shop and installed it with new oil... Good to go. Thick steel, rock solid construction 2-1/4 ton with a large pedestal like this one. Still working almost 40 years later.
This was very helpful... I have a 1950's 5 tonne trolley jack to restore, same problem as yours. I wish I had a UK Pound for everytime you said "Awright" ! Greetings from Southport UK!
I bought the very same jack 30 years ago. I bought it well used and a little abused at a flea market. I paid I believe 50.00. My dad thought I got taken for what I paid. I have used (and abused) that jack for 30 years, and it still works fine. In fact, until the last few years, I did not know that newer jacks didn't last just as well as mine. I was surprised when guys on mechanics forums said their jacks only lasted 10 years, or less. I guess I didn't pay too much after all. My jack looks identical to this one, but has no markings. It weighs right at 100 lbs. including the removable saddle and the handle.
I´m from Germany and had buy it from a factory in the black forest 40 years ago and it work like the first day
I found an old hydraulic floor jack about a decade ago, it looks very much like the one in the video, it had been thrown out because it leaked! I couldn't just leave it to be turned into scrap and the guy said I was welcome to it, so took it home and repaired it with a 10p rubber O-ring from a local store. A year or so after, following a lot of use, the top of the plunger broke, so welded that, but I still own it, I still use it, it's still my favourite hydraulic floor jack, although I would love to know the make and model so I could buy the correct rebuild kit for it. But I never trust these devices, they are excellent mechanics aids, but I always push into place a couple of different design of axle stands and lower the chassis onto them, keeping the jack with some weight on it long before I even lean under a raised vehicle, that's just a sensible precaution to me and to pass on such safety matters to my son, who thankfully does practice them. Most of my hydraulic jacks are now ages old, well built, strong and sturdy... I can't remember the last time I drove a vehicle one of my sets of ramps, I remember back when I could (and would) lift one side of my old Robin Reliant onto a ramp, then lift the other side, still makes me chuckle that there was a time I could do that!
Good move. Jacks have one purpose. To _change_ the relative height of a car. Jack stands have one purpose. To _hold_ a car at that height.
Every once in awhile I take on a project like this last one was to rebuild a transmission for a riding lawnmower that was two years ago and it still works thanks nice vid !!
This randomly popped into my feed, and I'm really glad it did, because it never occurred to me how easy it was to rebuild one of these jacks. I've got an old Harbor Freight 3-ton that isn't working anymore, and it may be cheaper to repair than replace, plus I've got an old aluminum Harbor Freight model that doesn't hold or pump up anymore - hopefully I can find a rebuild kit for both of those!
Thanks for the inspiration!
I broke my table that my vice was on trying to break the large nut loose, good video
Thanks for the lesson teacher for friend and subscriber Jimmy
The Vaseline you used is fine depending on what kind of rubber, neoprene the o rings are made of, the tapered thing with the spring is a pressure relief valve that opens to let fluid out of the pressure cylinder back to the reservoir to relieve excessive pressure if you try to lift something in excess of the Jack's capacity (a safety feature no doubt)
Good video all the best to you and yours Sir.
Excellent video, great job! My huge, 4x4 tall floor jack started to fail while working my my Bronco front end. I googled parts kits and your video popped up the next day. I guess google is always paying attention. Thank you sir!
It’s great to see an average guy do a repair. Too many so called experts telling you it can’t be done. Great job.
Got the same jack from the 70's also! Great job.
Thank you for walking us through it, now a day above freezing to go out and rebuild mine.
I got 2 and i was about to throw them away! Thanks, got a weekend project now!!
You’d make an awesome Instructor for sure,thank you for the detailed breakdown it’s very helpful.
You remind me of my ol' metal shop teacher from 40 years ago! Gr8 instruction & Thanx 4 the attention to detail boss, much appreciated!
Awesome editing bud, very well explained.. I give it a 👍up..
have the same jack I have been wanting to rebuild for probably 12 years. Thanks for making this one. Maybe I can get the ol girl lifting again now
Great video. Auto body tip. When using hammer hold index finger pointed up onto the handle towards the head of the hammer. Gives much better control of your grip and aim while striking. Give it a try.
Thank you, I attentively watched your video as I have a similar jack which I bought very cheap at an auction. They are a quality made Japanese product built for safety and long life. My jack also does not hold a weight and one of these days I will repair it referring to your video.
Thanks for the video I need to do my old jack!
I bought mine new in 1983. FYI: it weighs 90lbs. Thanks for putting this together.
Thank you very much for sharing that rebuild with us. I learnt a lot tonight!
I have a old bumper Jack and it leaks down also like the one in the video I'm going to take it apart to try to fix it only one thing wrong new cars don't have bumpers oh well
