Actually, Harbor Freight has a Chinese manufactured imitation of a Hi- 
Lift� jack. I own both.  There's no comparison. Get the Made in US of  
A real deal.

You will never miss the difference in dollars. Especially not when you  
take it out and all the parts are still there. The imitation you'll  
have to bolt back together before you can use it. BTDT

There are bunches of them on ebay.
