My memory failed me as it does have a data plate, Model 745 Series E.

I have an older mechanical Walker that I restored a few years ago. I believe it's a 745 but I'm not certain about the model number.

I didn't have any success finding a model number, but after talking to Steve at HPS he found a rebuild kit that should work based on the cylinder size. In the mean time I've redone most of the parts and started the re-assembly. It's one big jack.

I picked up this Manley hydraulic floor jack locally off CL for $50 and I'm in the process of restoring it. It obviously has seen a lot of usage but still functioned, although it leaked a significant amount of oil. It appeared to have been painted orange and then gray at one time over what I...

That's another neat old Walker jack. I'm guessing it's a mechanical version also? Jacking on a gravel floor is challenging!

Both are 5000 lb models. As these are totally mechanical, yes you do need to lower the vehicle one 'click' at a time. The 745 floor model is what's called a 'roll a car'. From what I've read it was for use in smaller garages so you could lift one end of a vehicle and roll it to where ever you...

I did a little searching but missed that link. A very nice restoration of a similar Walker. If anyone is in the process of restoring one, I have a vinyl cutter that makes either lettering or stencils. I'd be happy to help out. In doing some searching I wasn't completely sure about the colors...

Thank you. As far as a restoration project I liked the idea of a purely mechanical jack versus a hydraulic. I was confident that I could disassemble, clean, coat and reassemble the mechanical version more easily than a hydraulic. I actually have a very big and heavy new hydraulic jack so this...

Here is another Walker I recently restored. It also was badly rusted when I found it. It was completely disassembled, cleaned, blasted and powder coated. The main shaft was zinc plated and the handle was missing. I fabricated a handle based on photo's I found from an old advertisement. These old...

I picked up this old Walker 745 mechanical floor jack a couple months ago off Craigs List. It was rusted, had a bent handle, but otherwise was complete and working. I disassembled it, de-greased everything, blasted and powder coated it blue with yellow wheels and handle. All the bolts and main...
