After far too long searching, I finally found a worthy jack at a price that fits the budget. Believe it is a Walker 93657, but someone (Hiball) will likely be along to confirm or deny this.
Couldn't turn down the $40 price tag, even though it wouldn't lift, although pumping the handle does distribute really clean hydraulic fluid to the ground in rapid fashion from multiple locations. Leaves me to believe this sticker doesn't mean as much as it should.
5 minutes of pressure washing, an overnight dry, and a little over 30 minutes of wrenching with very little PB Blaster and even less expletives (the stupid set screws on the rear wheels were the most annoying piece to remove, surprisingly), I had the entire apparatus disassembled.
Definitely leaking badly from from the packing nut side and a little from at least two of the plugs covering the valves. I wonder where I can get a rebuild kit from (Hiball). Yes, I will be sending him a PM.
One question. How do you get the lifting cap (Part 61 below) separated from the Cap Housing (62)? The Lifting Cap Pin (63) was obviously and deliberately mushroomed during original manufacture.
I really want to separate these parts as it would be a shame to have the jack completely broken down and not do a complete cleaning, blasting and repaint.

Looks good, my you use it well!
