oh and i bought an aluminum racing jack at HF. 4 years of serious abuse (used at every autocross to swap wheels out) and it's just starting to leak. i'm gonna pull it apart and re-seal it shortly and back in business. best $90 i've ever spent, no more scissor jack lol
It was a last resort. I tried hammer and punch, sockets, heating, solvents even a ball joint press - those bastards were practically welded in. The hydraulic punched them right out and it sounded like a shotgun going off when they let go.
