need help identifying walker floor jack

[want-a-be]

I picked up this jack on a garage sale today for $20. It lifts fine..but is in need of some new packing as it is leaking. Just wondering if anyone may know what model it is by looks?
It has some blue on the body and white on the handle. The old guy I bought it from thought it was only rated at 1 1/2 tons ? Seems pretty big for those small numbers? He said he bought it used while still in high school...I'm guessing he is in his mid 60's ....so maybe 50's or 60's model year?

I attached a couple pictures...

Thanks...

Look for a member here who goes by Hiball. He is a guru with floor jacks, and has helped me so much with my walker jack restore. Good find, BTW.

how would I get Hi-Ball to reply?

also...a little more to the story. I found a thread on the forum that seemed to describe my jack...so thinking I needed the 93632 kit...I took a chance and ordered it. Unfortunately it turned out to be the wrong kit for the jack.

See my new pictures....hope this help someone (Hi-Ball??) identifiy this bad boy.

Thanks

..sounds like a Sears branded Walker based on colors.

I'd say you're about as far along with yours as I am with mine! I just finished cleaning all of the "big" parts with a wire wheel. The small ones will be done tomorrow, with a wire wheel on the bench grinder. I need to get some new wheels made at a machine shop. And a seal kit for the pump... and invent something to connect the release valve to the handle... more and more and more...

If for whatever reason you can't get it working again, I would love to have that cover plate...

If you have a 2 ton model, it is the Walker J782/J882. If is a 4 ton model, it's the J784/J884. You would use either the URK124 kit for the 2 ton model or the URK134 for the 4 ton model. Both kits are available online at http://www.blackhawkparts.com/page18/html. Any questions, email us at [email protected].

I was wondering how long it would be before the Chattanooga boys showed up..... Welcome to the GJ and how are things going over on Amnicola?
