Another happy Harbor Freight buyer...., Short story from another board Options

[URY914]

From Garage Jounal...

"Earlier I posted that I was looking at the HF 4000 pound aluminum jack. I ended up buying it and today was my first opportunity to put it to use. This thing is a huge piece of sh!t and is going back on Monday. Straight out of the box, this thing will not even think about lifting my car. I tried bleeding the pump per the instructions and still nothing. Luckily, the Craftsman Club sale flyer came today and they have one on sale next week.

Stay away from Harbor Freight. Next time, I'll take my own advice."


And a reply...

"Man, same crap happened to me with the engine crane I bought from them. "Good deal" I thought until I got home and couldn't raise the hoist. Ram was dead. Took it back.

Nothing worse than taking back heavy $hit.

Sorry to hear it was a POS..."

Another...

"Yup, my jack from HF is a piece of junk too. I wish I could get an AC Hydraulics jack. I've always thought they were too expensive........... but now I see the importance of a high quality jack. Especially on a lowered car!


If you can, skip the Sears model and get an AC Hydraulics jack!!!!!!"



BTW, the AC Hydraulics is the same one Wayne sells at Pelican.
