I want to do this now, but this floor jack will not fit under the car with the liftbars, so it's a process to use them, so I think it would be best to buy a new one.
However, I'm going to look into rebuilding this one too as it has served me well for a long time. I'm sure I can find a use for it other than chucking it on the junk pile.

Thanks.
