I'm guessing floorjack, not an actual Hi-Lift jack.

I was looking at new low profile Bahco jacks the other day, they look and feel nice, but had no pricetag near them. But I can't help but wonder, how many Biltema jacks can you have for the price of one Bahco jack?

Buy a larger service/grade jack. If you've blown out that many cheap ones you're overtaxxing them. If you think 2 tons means two tons, do yourself a favor and buy a 3ton jack to do the job...no matter the cost of the jack.

Jacks are honing and seals, little else. You can only get so bad or so good of a hone....

No no....new floorjacks(4pc) directly from the store, only use it to change tires! So not any abusing or overlifting! I know how to use a floorjack on proper way, allways straight lift etc, it costs about 30 usd...you get what you paid for! when i bought them the company had a big failure on many jacks, when you pumping up it sink on the same time so it doesnt work so well!
