Does anyone know if you can repair the cylinder on a craftsman jack? Mine has a leak, and I can't keep the fluid in the chamber. Now, it has no "umph" and will now jack up the auto. Can I get a kit anywhere? Is it repairable? I have the tools to do the job if anyone knows how/where I can get gaskets. I have already tried Sears...no go...by the way, this jack was made in China for Sears if that helps. :wall:

I'd check your yellow pages for a shop that services hydraulic systems. They may (or may not) be able to help you out. Typically, heavy truck repair shops have some ability to service these systems.
