    My darn floor jack started leaking, and wont hold any pressure. Anyone know of a place in Orange County that repairs these things?

    Have you tried taking the cylinder apart? Its not much more than just o-rings in a cylinder, some valving and springs. Once you have the old o-rings go to your local hardware store and find replacements. Not knowing the age or brand of your floor jack may be next to impossible to try and find the exact rebuild kit. Good Luck.

    unless you're in love with that jack it may be cheaper to buy a new one.I had a really great heine warner that started to take a dump. the estimate was 125.00 to fix it.I bought a generic one from Kragen that has worked for 3 years now for around 50 bucks.

    Just go to harbor frieght and get a new one for a C-note. After all, you need to support cheap, chinese slave labor.

    When it comes to placing my body under something that could crush me, "usually reliable" doesn't count. Get a new one.
