Early USA BlackHawk jack

[retrobuilder]

I tentatively identified a recent purchase of an older floor jack the seller described as a Walker 2 Ton. Apparently a 60’s-70’s later USA made BlackHawk SJ-2. Purchased to restore and use in my home shop. The original Sears colors of a lighter blue however considering colors closer to OEM colors with a BlackHawk logo graphics decal on the access cover + small USA flag decal on side plates. These have real grease fittings for servicing which were used based on general condition.

Total teardown, derust and unit overhaul and NOS rear casters..at half cost of new Hein Werner.. future rebuild pictures posted in December.

Open to any info or suggestions..

Definitely Blackhawk, Correct on the color scheme indicating it was marketed by Sears under the craftsman line., I suspect 70's into early 80's.

Nice find..

Thanks, If I had not already been reaching out to Peterson Hydraulics, the hydraulic unit is something you perhaps could have helped with.

Truly more opportunities later though as I do not have hones and specific tools plus all the valuable "know how" as yourself.

No worries... I'm sure they will take care of you. I'm just glad to see someone take the time to bring one back to life, versus the alternative.
