Floor Jack Junk Yard - Beltsville, MD

Scavenged some H-W parts today, including a couple new old stock parts. About 6-8 WS models there in pretty tough shape. He also has a couple of 2-4 ton H-Ws that we’re complete and not too bad. Probably could be had for $20 each....

He said he will probably scrap everything in about 30 days.

He's got a few jacks

 

[Richard Cranium]

now that is a lot of jacks

Before you can leave Grasshopper, you must rebuild all these jacks.

Scrap value is probably a lot higher then $500. No saying that he should though.

 

[Erampu]

I wonder if his name is Jack...

 

[sberry]

I would trade all of them for a couple new ones that work. There is likely a reason they are there.

 

[Outnumbered76]

I wonder if we work together, some of them look really familiar. And he is close to work.

If anyone goes to buy something from this guy, I need a favor. The handle on my old Blackhawk is broken, and I think I can see some handles in that guys lot...sadly, I'm on the wrong coast and his post doesn't give me that warm feeling that he'll take PayPal and ship me a part.

Please PM me if you're gonna go look at these and wouldn't mind pulling a part for me!

Since I have a working Chinese jack I'm not in the market but if I was I'd take on a Hein Warner. Was my favorite jack back in the day, 40 years ago. Sold one and had another stolen. Really liked those.

If you're trying to make a deal with this guy just watch he doesn't try jacking you around, it looks like he's got the experience.

Seriously, this is eye candy. We could make a calendar off his one ad.

The guy with all the jacks was a really nice guy. Owned a towing company back in the day and is a car guy to boot. Real down to earth, not a hoarder, and realistic on pricing. Friend of his who owned a hydraulic repair shop died a while back and he helped his widow clear out the shop. He told me another guy got there before me and bought some Blackhawk or Lincoln parts (I can’t recall which).

So are you now the proud owner of 1257 jacks?

LoL - Nope, just some spare front wheels and rear caster wheels for HW jacks.

 

[bonneyman]

And all I want is one!

 

[toolmiser]

I could use a front wheel.

 

[fl18guy]

Chris. What part of the handle do you need. I have the upper part of a s-4 . It's the split handle with lock in middle

 

[Buckgnarly]

A shame to see those go on a slow boat to be returned as junk throw away jacks.....
