Quality bottle jack?
I am throwing in the towel on cheap bottle jacks from Harbor Freight, Farm & Fleet, etc. Who sells good ones that will last? I realize that a good one will probably cost 3-4 times what I've been pay...

Funny you would say that.......*SEARS*
My "forever" genuine Sears *floor jack* that I paid $125 bucks for long ago, gave up the ghost.
Of course Sears (Craftsman products) sells repair kits and/or parts for the hydraulic cylinder/s on their jacks, right?
Or - maybe an entire replacement cylinder.
NOT a chance! .:(
(NO - there's no lifetime warranty of that kind of a "tool" - nor would I expect one).
Found others with the same dilemma (same jack) on the internet.
Best you can do is "ify" parts from some outfit in the Midwest that will run you about the same as a HF floor jack with *double* the capacity - and a bit more than *half* of what I paid for the Sears jack long ago.
It served me well - but no more "Sears" for me!..:W
