[bobbycos]

It works online too.. for anyone that isn't so sure it's "real"'

And it worked for me in the store the other night

and hopefully it works tomorrow as well

worked today for me again

The damn cashier wouldn't let me use it on a transmission jack today. Said she'd get in trouble

Anyone else heard of this?

yup

it's in the fine print about jacks

 

[Caparris]

Gotcha. Knew that applied to regular jacks but thought it would work on transmission jacks

Ah well. I got a regular jack + crossbeam bar that I think will work better for what I'm doing anyways

I was able to use a 25% off on the scissor trans jack I bought a few months ago, so the computer will let them do it with no override.

Re: New style arbor plates for 20 ton shop press.

Wonder if Harbor Freight will make those available separately? I would rather prefer to avoid the old exploding cast iron ones (which is what I have now).

Huh?

Were they packed with C4 and the new ones aren't? Excuse my ignorance.

There are many reports of the cast ones busting into pieces while under pressure. Sometimes Sending pieces flying towards the operator

Several pictures online of people who have been hit by the pieces

Forgive me if this is a repost - but did you guys know people are selling HF coupons on ebay?
http://www.ebay.com/itm/HARBOR-FREI...014?pt=Tool_Boxes_Storage&hash=item1c491aafde

~$50 for a coupon!? $99 is a great price but there are tons of the $109 and $129 coupons very easily available which are cheaper than buying this coupon on ebay.

 

[AceofSpad3s]

Pretty sure they think it is the cart not a coupon.

 

[stage20]

oh yea. i like that!

 

[Colin Len]

Read the auction title and description. It's not the only HF coupon up on ebay. Most are only for a few pennies or few dollars but this one has skyrocketed.

 

[Caparris]

Try putting the item in your cart on harborfreight.com . Then put the coupon in and see if it works. If it does, print it out and take it into the store. Shouldn't be a problem for them to do it then.

I did.. and it did work on the website. They still refused to honor it in store. Cashier said she'd get screamed at later if she put it in, even though it probably would technically "work"

Pretty sure I could have came back later to a different cashier and they would have put it through though. The cashiers there that day were the best/fastest I've ever seen at HF, so I'm guessing they were pretty experienced (Saturday afternoon and it was BUSY)

Ah well. In hindsight I think the jack crossbeam thing I got will work just as well if not better. I have to put the rear cradle/transmission back in a corvette and it's a pretty wide piece. Angle, etc. isn't all that important, so some of the features of a transmission jack wouldn't have been all that much help.

Also got some straps to strap the whole mess to the beam

 

[NineFingerFury]

Does anyone have a current 20% off entire purchase coupon? I need a few things for work and live about 20 minutes away from the nearest HF.

Too true. I was there yesterday and I swear I saw at least 3 of them getting rolled out to the parking lot in the hour I was there

I'd hate to know the volume of those things that they move

The quality is decent and the price is more than right. If I didn't have a craftsman stack already, I'd get the 56 and chest for sure.

$160 out the door after taxes.. 20 ton hydraulic press

This thing was a BEAST to get into the car. I felt like my car was dragging the ground the whole way home

Will put it together Saturday! Hopefully I got everything (there is a 2nd box that isn't pictured)

Planning on picking one of these up tonight-anyone know the size of the boxes-will it fit in my car-hatchback with rear fold down seats=I have about 6 ft from rear of frt seats to hatch

Should fit OK if seats fold down. The main box is long (height of the machine) but not that big in other directions

Second box is just the jack and a few bolts and stuff, so nothing to worry about there

It fit in my Honda Accord fine with the back seat folded down

 

[T-Mac]

ok-thanks

 

[Caparris]

ok-thanks

Press itself is 60" tall, so bigger box is a little longer than that

FYI, the free magnetic strips are made up of 8 rectangular magnets, if you need magnets. They are a little smaller than the 2 packs of ceramic magnets they sell, so a little weaker.

Just chisel and hammer and they'll come right out. Plus you get the fairly heavy coated metal c-channel for some project, I don't know what yet, maybe strengthen the shelf I made for the HF side cabinet.

Don't count on any replacement parts. I asked about some replacement parts for industrial air filter regulator:
http://www.harborfreight.com/industrial-air-filter-regulator-68247.html

They said I basically had to buy a new one because they don't generally sell replacement parts through the stores, I could possible mail order it.

Anybody have a coupon for the 6 in. Variable Speed Dual Action Polisher P/N 69924. Looks like last year it was around $29-39.99.

Thanks

I called regarding parts for paint spray guns (different size tips/needles). I was hoping to get some larger nozzles for some of the guns. I gave them pretty much every model of gravity feed gun, got the same answer: no parts available, even the original size not available.

I picked up a "44" Saturday, then went back for another. (SUV, so only one per trip). Put them end to end, and noticed that they aren't exactly level -- gap on top, touching at bottom. I will have to shim the casters at some point -- both cabinets are lower on the caster end (opposites for the two). Not really planning on rolling them, so for now I put shims on the floor.

The best coupon I've seen for that polisher was $49.99. Haven't seen any lately, but they are usually in the car magazines.

They have a different polisher that is not D/A that regularly has a coupon for $29.99. P/N 60626. Not nearly the machine that the other polisher is, though.

 

[jose's garage]

can anyone use this?

Yeah right now it's around 67.99 and with the 25% off it will get it down around $50.00 that probably is the best I can do.

I put shims on the front two wheels to keep the drawers from creeping open.

Just pull off the paper cover and the magnets come out with a minimum of effort

I am looking at the 56 and the 72 for a possible Christmas present to myself

Got my 20 ton press home last night and found the frame and jack are orange and the cross bars are dark gray-WTF?
