I have "The Beast" floor jack and when I googled the part number in search of an overhaul kit, it came up as a Snap On jack

Wrenchr Im about 99.9% sure "The Beast" is a Import and it was Overpriced at that.

i've had mine for over 10 years and it's pretty awesome,never any problems.

Just so we are Clear.. Im Not saying that its Not a good jack, But i AM saying that its Overpriced and the same Jack can be found Much.. Much... cheaper via different Avenues. The only benefit to buying Hydraulics via the Tool Trucks is you Generally get a Little better Warranty (+1, 2 years) and you get front door service if you require it. That Is it... No Magic Seals, Just cooler Paint and Graphics.

I think PTI (Professional Tools Inc) makes the Beast jack. PTI makes Matco's cordless tools and I think they make that jack also. PTI is a Taiwan based company.

I am pretty sure that Professional Tool Products LLC is just another way to say Sunex. I think they are in Travelers Rest, SC.

Yes. They handle the jack for us. To the best of my knowledge, the current model is originally sourced from Shin Fu.

You are correct.
