The only thing I can think of is I bought a jack (made in china) that has a
vertical lift of 36 inches. After about 30 uses the lifting piston started to
leak jack oil. Since it is not a major brand I can't get a seal kit for
the piston. Now this thing marks my garage more than the car. Other then
that it works fine. I also have to add oil quite a bit. Good luck and I
hope the piston last forever. I am a bit leery of offshore jacking products.
As an aside does anyone know of a high quality and repairable jack that
will lift my cars about 36 inches? When your car is 30 inches off the
ground it is easier to move about underneath. What I really want is a
lift but that is far to costly at this point in my life.
