Northern will usually ship to the store, and you can avoid shipping costs. It's hard to find on their website, but if you call they can help you out.

I'm pretty sure that you can return it the that way as well.

After using several crap jacks I spent the money and purchased a Napa Professional series 3 1/2 ton jack. I paid about $250 for it on sale but it's outlasted three $99 dollar ones I had prior. I've had it a few years now so the same jack today is about $400. Heres a link to it.

I have a Lincoln 3 1/2 ton floor jack and have had it for almost 20 years. It's a little tired, do they sell rebuild kits for the hydraulic pump for the Lincolns? It's still a really nice jack and I hate to get rid of it.

I'm sure somebody must, it's a US-made device and things like that are pretty
standardized.

A quick google reveals:
- Hydraulic jack 800 548-0090
- A different source: blackhawkparts-repair kits, parts and accessories for hydraulic jacks

My father has an old, 1.5 ton Blackhawk he got parts for somewhere, he
inherited it from his uncle in 1976 who already had it for God knows how long. I
love that thing, I want one (but not one that's made in China).

There was a place in San Francisco where I have had my jacks fixed. I'm sure they can lead you to a kit. Must be some place where you are though.

I have a and old Hein Warner and a real Lincoln. But to tell you all the truth. The $100 3 ton from Sears is what I use the most.

This thread on a different site (apologies to the admins) has some info on rebuilding floorjacks, and contacting user HiBall might get you the parts, or part sources you need.
