Do American tool importers import this style of jack "approximately 3.5-4 feet long" into the US or Canada? If not, who would possibly make this?

The seller says she cannot find a stamping or label, which suggest it is Chinese made.

she is selling it for a good deal but..I cannot carry this beast in my truck as it weighs allot. Even lifting my old Lincoln 2 ton into the back of my truck take some strength.

I believe its a Import, Ausco (Late in there Career) sold a similar looking jack and it used a HeinWerner unit. If i could see the Hydraulic unit, I could be 100% sure. If you get a chance to look at it in person, Snap a Picture of the Hydraulic unit.

Info often is on the bottom, but if its too big for you to use why not post the location and pass it on to somebody else?

Yep.. Same Jack and to the OP yours is definitely a Import. After looking at the picture closer i see a Foot pedal hiding behind the handle, The Ausco unit doesnt have that. Its really not a bad Jack, Its a fairly simple design with very few working parts.
