> http://www.hi-lift.com All this talk of Hi-Lift jacks piqued my curiosity as to what I have in that type of jack, so I just went out into the garage and looked over the jack: It's a red Hi-Lift jack! I lent it to a friend who was working on his house about 10 years ago. I didn't inspect it when he returned it, but later discovered the main steel bar was curved with a fairly large radius instead of being straight. I have wondered if it would be possible to straighten it, but haven't had the equipment to do so. Since I found out that it's cast iron, maybe that would be unsafe. In looking that the website Dan linked, I found they sell the individual parts. The 48" bar (which I have) is $21.78. The 60" bar is $24.59. They also have a Fix-It-Kit that includes the climbing pins and springs, the safety shear bolt and nut, and a tube of grease for $25.51. So, they are a company which makes an outstanding product and supports it, too!
