Two years ago my kids gave me a Sears Chinaman floor jack, one of the $200 
aluminum types. Twelve months later it started leaking and lost most of it's 
oil on my garage floor.  After much badgering and letters to corporate Sears 
finally replaced it, under protest and scolding, with another just like it. 
Now, another 12 months has passed and guess what?  The second one is also 
leaking.  I did a little checking and found that I am not the only one with 
the problem, in fact it seems that they all leak.  Anybody tried to fix one 
of these things?  Of course, Sears lists all of the repair parts with part 
numbers leading one to think they are repairable, but none are available.

Short of finding a successful solution, are there any suggestions for a good 
jack.  I have found that there is at least one "MADE IN USA" jack made by 
Hein-Werner, any experience with them?
