I've got one just like these too. Worked great for a couple of years and then wouldn't pump up. I added more oil to it and bada bing, it works again.

You'll not find instructions on how to do this though as it's "unserviceable" according to the manufacturer... but that's crap.

I want a second one now.

The one concern I have about these is that the service is questionable. Would you be kind enough to reveal where the oil is added?

Thanks everyone for your opinion.

I have the same one...just used it this weekend

to help my buddy swap out shocks on his four runner. I have only used it sparingly with the car so far but I have been very impressed with it. My friend has had one for probably 10-12 years and used it a lot with his race cars. I am almost certain TSC sells the same jack (slightly different branding and box) for at least twice as much.
