list; Would like to thank everyone for their hydraulic floor jack
experiences. After talking with a local jack distributor and surfing 6-8
web sites, there is sadly only one American Jack Manufacturer left !
Its Milwaukee Hydraulic in good 'ole Milwaukee, WI. Many consider them the
"Cadillac" of jacks. 
Unfortunately their 2 ton list for almost $600 ! Yes friends  many of the
old names such as Walker,Lincoln,Werner, and others have been merged or
acquired by & with overseas companies. 
They maybe assembled in the US of A, but made with "Globally available
parts". So the best of the Chinese made seems to be Norco brand. As a card
carrying union member this is hard to swallow. Thanks again mates for your
replies. This list can't be beat for help & advice !
