I had the same exp as you. Used the jack maybe 10 times before it took a dump and Sears would do nothing about it. I went to our local discount store and bought their 3 ton jack that I knew was a China job so that I wouldn't mind throwing it out. Sitting side by side except for the color the two jacks were identical. Last time I was in Sears..........10 yrs ago!!
