Pittsburgh 1 1/2 Ton Aluminum Racing Jack Leaks

[AchingBack]

Has anyone rebuilt or repaired this jack? Mine is leaking at the bottom of the rods going through the springs. I guess there must be some failed O-rings, or seals.
Without some guidance, I can't see how to properly tear it down. 1.5 Ton Aluminum Racing Floor Jack with Rapid Pump(R)

I have one, as far as I am concerned its junk... Will hardly lift corner of Chevy PU to change a tire...

But if you must....

Note this statement in PDF file... IT probably in reference to part you need to repair....

If you search it on u-tube you might find some information about them... Worth a shot.

Thank you, but I already have this and it isn't helpful. Mine works when properly bled and refilled. It just leaks soon after.

Lots of videos there on other floor jacks, but all of them are of a different configuration.

Seals are pretty generic. If you can get it apart, you can probably find an appropriate seal at McMaster-Carr.

Thanks. At this point in time it is easier to deal with refilling and leaking. I don't have the time to tear into it without guidance.
