I finally able to borrow a nieghbors jack to remove mine and I took it back to sears .. they basicly said congrats you have a $100 + paper wieght! (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/mad.gif) mainly because I had no receipt even though it is easy to see that it has barely been used and clearly says craftsman all over the damn thing...

This is funny. I too purchased a 3-ton floor jack from Sears. Used about 6 times, then the fluid leaked out. Anyway, went back to Sears to get a replacement, 'Sorry we don't waranty floor jacks, just tools.' WTF? Anyway, I purchased another one from them (a couple of months later after I cooled down). I also found, with the new one, how to order a new cylinder, so I'll be doing that soon.

BTW, I brought 4 screw drivers back because I used them improperly. Walked in, laid them on the counter, guy looks at them, walks over to the tools, finds the replacements, rings them up, hands them to me, and I walk out the door. No problems, no issues, no conversation.
