Thanks Sooooo Much! Your video helped me do the job. Just like you showed it. I was facing the same thing you said. It's working like new again.

[@RICKAFIX]

+a444carl nice Carl glad it worked

[@christopherbratcher8765]

Hey Rick, my jack has been leaking oil and now blowing bubbles from the screw that you use to raise and lower the jack. Do you know if there is an o-ring that can be replaced in there?

[@SHEDNERD]

Thanks, I should have watched your video before I tried to fill it myself...I added fluid through the release bolt and after tightening the bolt, one pump blew the rubber fill cap out, I found it after about a 20 min search over 12' away. Going to go try your way now... ;)

[@RICKAFIX]

haha I hope you video'd the event lol

[@SHEDNERD]

…it gets worse Rick, once I found the fill cap after its flight and realized I had been filling improperly I deduced the jack must have to be in the up position to fill the chamber because it was full in the down position so I unhitched the return spring, raised the lift arm, added fluid till full, replaced the cap, and to make sure I didn’t send the cap flying again I held the cap down with my thumb as I attempted to push the lift arm down. The arm wouldn’t budge but the jack lever went up so I took the lever off to see if I could pull the piston rod out and possibly release some trapped air. The piston wouldn’t come out so I again tried to push the arm down with my thumb on the fill cap…drum roll…I sent the piston flying along with most of the fluid I had added. I’m not usually this inept in the things I attempt so I don’t make videos for other’s amusement; I hope my recount will suffice. I have the jack together and working after watching your video but I now need to replace the piston O-ring...I'm too old for this ;)...also, I did look for a fill cap when I started but didn't see it because the jack was so dirty; it's my neighbors jack that we were using to replace the outer tie-rod end on his Aerostar.

[@sigel79]

Did the same thing now I'm watching

[@chrisreed6810]

Thanks Rick! I've been messing around with my jack because it had been ailing abnormally fast recently... I refilled its oil and got the bubbles out from the top, but I had no idea the right way was to force them out the release... Did that and it kept up much longer! I'm still new to jacks, or jack repair at least... Thanks again!

✊🏾✊🏾🖤🖤THANK YOU

[@MattSeals]

Highly helpful look frontward to returning.

[@aguilayserpiente]

Fine instruction. What did you do about the leak?

[@mentalissues41]

try pumping it to the full height, bet it wont

[@Dcook18]

Mine stopped working. Took it apart, and do not even have a rubber piece where you fill the jack up. I have only used the jack twice🤨

[@stuzman52]

Hey Rick...It's good to have you back. I was wondering what happened to you. And you'll be getting some good sunshine down there in Florida. Take care...

[@RICKAFIX]

stuzman52 yes we are...i was putting together a recycling facility in philly pretty much working everyday nice to have some time off thanks

[@OLDBD1]

Damn good to see you Bro. Look forward to the vid's . Hope you get some beach time down in Florida .

[@RICKAFIX]

OLDBD1 thanks man Yea waters perfect now...just need to lose 40lbs haha

[@sirsweetness8332]

Do you know what size o-ring it needs? I have same jack and it is leaking at the pump stem. 208 is probably too big

[@bigsmiler5101]

Throw out the first 1:15 minutes and drop the last 60 seconds and this would be a good video titled "How to add oil to a jack."

[@FL-rk5kp]

What part of florida are you in? I'm In Jacksonville, and it's hot as hell here! Good to see you're still driving that truck on long trips without hesitation!

[@RICKAFIX]

Mitchell Kirkland south of sarasota...yea truck loves long trips I am getting the best gas mileage ever now that the air con is not working lol

[@UnitCrane514]

I have that same jack and I cant find a seal kit for it, do you know where to gets parts for this jack at?

[@RICKAFIX]

UnitCrane514 try Oreily or Sears for a rebuild kit

[@psycholordb7811]

thanx guy

[@RICKAFIX]

+psycholordb your welcome

[@FTS003]

So this is going to sound crazy. A very small spring like object came out of my jack and now i have no idea where to put it back. Can anyone help me with that?

[@myownspiritlevel]

Lame. This is like posting a "transmission repair" video and showing yourself pouring Lucas Oil down the filler tube.

[@hawk7825]

Thx bud

[@DelFam2011]

If you are paying 150 for that type of Jack you are getting ripped off because those types a day go for 20-30 at any store I've ever been at.
