I will jump into the conversation as well. I have had my Challenger CL10V3 since 2016 and it has been a fine piece of equipment. The 3 stage arms are very nice. I have everything from a 4 door long bed truck to a 80" wheelbase Jeep on it. My little Jeep (1950 CJ3A) is actually the hardest...

My father put up an eagle 8000# four post about 8 years ago. It worked great for his use, small cars, a couple old car restorations, and picking up lawn mowers. One cable loosened or stretched after a couple of years, which caused it to come off the pulley and become frayed quickly. They had the...

My challenger lift has retaining rings on the bottom of the pins. You didnt mention removing them.

My Challenger came with Hilti expansion anchors, if I ever move it over in the garage I plan to buy more of the same.

Did you get the new packing from Dake or did you source it elsewhere? I need to reseal my press.

I have used the large metro-pack connectors for #10 wires in automotive applications. The 630 sized connector is rated to 46 amps.

So, two years later is the repair still holding? My parts washer has developed a leak that I am going to have to repair. Thanks.

I purchased mine through the local Napa. I had to pay sales but the total price was in line to what it would have cost to buy online and then pay shipping. It helped that my local Napa is part of a farm supply store, they have room for trucks to deliver and the equipment to unload. The owner...

My father has a 8000# Eagle four post, he has had it since 2013 or 2014. It is an OK lift for a home shop. As far as parts being stocked, he broke a lifting cable last summer from it coming off a pulley and binding up. It didnt completely break it, but it was mangled enough to not use it...

PM sent. Thank you very much.

When I was looking for a Saylor Beall the people I talked too at the local compressor shop told me that no legit 703, 705, or 707 S-Bs came with the cast cooler on the output side. They also told me one of the best ways to spot a fake was metric bolts on the heads and crankcase.

PM on the way.

Thank you very much. If I wanted to source individual seals how would I go about it? Measure what I have and call the seal suppliers? That might be the best way to go as I only need one seal I think. But, I would buy a kit if I need to just to have the rest of the seals for the future.

Anybody?

My transmission jack has developed a serious leak, seems like it is coming from around the lowering knob. This jack looks almost identical to the Sunex 7793c series, except for the pedal load release. I bought it second hand 5 years or so ago and I can’t seem to figure what kind it is. I would...
