Mike, I wonder if you can help me. I love these jack stands. They were made by your company back in the 1940's. My father bought his first set in the late 40's and i now have them. I also picked up 2 sets of the 5 tons stands, but one of them is missing the pin that holds cradle up. I tried...

Hi. i have 3 sets of these jack stands. one set i just picked up (because no one knows what they are), and one of the stands was missing the pin which holds up the cradle. Any idea where i can find a pin. I actually called the company, and they were completely clueless. I have 2 sets of 5 ton...

https://www.amazon.com/American-Lifting-AL2300-Floor-Jack/dp/B089PT1GRY/?tag=atomicindus08-20 if you are looking for a USA hein-werner replacement for the Snap-on YA700B, here is a good alternative. Its a few hundred dollars than the Hein-Werner branded jack, and as far as i can tell, its...

I've just finished overhauling my 4th jack (all lincoln/walker/napa/hein-werner/snap on. They are all the same manufacturer (at least they were). the kits are readily available pretty much anywhere, and about 30 min watching youtube video and if you have any mechanical abilities, you can do it...

I'm happy to say, the jack has been successfully repaired and is working as it should. I purchased the seals from Lazzar's HCRCnow company. they sell seals that are actually branded "hein-werner". these seals are far superior to what i purchased previously. This time it went together as it...

you are right, its called U-cup. Not sure why i thought it was called a c-cup. I have both sizes. the larger one absolutely won't fit into the bore. I had bought a kit from Hydraulic Parts Supply in KS for the YA642, and that kit only had the U-cup for the smaller one 227919. I have the series...

I did hone out the cylinder before i put the new cup in. but i'll take a deeper look. i'm not sure what brand was included in the kit i bought. i just ordered the OEM hein-werner c-cup yesterday. i'm hoping thats a bit softer. I'll keep you posted.

After an hour of trying everything i could think of on the outside of the jack, i had one last brain storm. i thought maybe i didn't put enough fluid in it. so i filled it with as much fluid as i could, and i got it to finally rise. but that was with my fill tank still full of fluid. And once it...

Hi. this is my 4th rebuild, and the first one to give me trouble. I completely rebuilt it. New washer, heal plate and c-cup. New ball bearings, etc. Everything new. the problem i'm having is, when i loaded it, it sucked in all 7oz of fluid, so i know the pump is good. But when i got to lift it...

is this the tool? its exactly what i need. How much do you want for it? if you don't want to sell it, could you make me one? thanks. Alan

Hi. could you send me some pictures. i looked through the thread and i didn't see it. How much do you want to buy your tool? i need to purchase something i can keep here for future repairs. thanks. Alan

Hi. I was wondering if you could send me pictures of the tool you made and how much you'd want for it. I desperately need to buy one. I've tried to make one from cutting up some sockets, but like someone else in the post said, that didn't work for them either. I don't have access to welding...
