Hein Werner Model 54 Transmission Jack

[hyjaxe]

I was wondering if anyone here would know where to source part #25045, 'packing nut' for a Hein Werner model 54, transmission jack. It's the brass ring that screws on the top of the piston. The only place I was able to source one is from HCRCNOW, but they want 268 for it. Appreciate any help! Thanks!

The cheapest way to get that nut, would be to scavenge one from a Hein Werner O'Boy model floor jack - apparently, they use the same packing nut: https://media.hcrcnow.com/uploads/drawings/Hein-Werner_OS_O-Boy_Floor_Jack.pdf

Try Hydraulic Parts Supply in Sawyer KS - I've heard they have quite a boneyard out back and that was a common jack in its day, (620) 594-2247.

My new part arrived from Hydraulic Parts Supply, looks to be brand new, I thought maybe he would send one from a donor machine. There's a company near me that I will send it off to get rebuilt. I originally tried rebuilding it myself, with not much success
