Can anyone ID this jack? I can get a pic of the area above the cylinder I'd this angle isn't enough.

Appears to be a Hein Werner GH-1.
Thank you, Hiball. Based on that, it looks like seal kits are available online for around $100. Do you have a strong opinion about this model? One is local to me for $40. Guy said it worked great until "the fluid leaked out."

I don’t want to bash the Older HW lineup, but there is a reason that the current Hein Werner company is selling the Walker/Lincoln lineup after they acquired Lincoln Hydraulic. I wouldn’t worry about acquiring soft parts, Hard parts in good used or Nos condition is harder to find but everything can be machined if need be. I know $40 seems cheap, and I wouldn’t hesitate at that price, but I have a market for used parts if it’s a complete turd. I would put eyes on the Rod finish for both pump pistons and give it a once over.

Good luck.

Well, the guy offered it to me for $30. Seems impossible to say no. If it's broken or if I fail to succeed at fixing it, I'll probably be able to break even or make money parting it out. I dint really need it, as I have a Blackhawk 4 ton, but that needs a ujoint. I open and close the release valve with Vise Grips
