I just thought I would add my 2¢ to the HF bashing. I bought one of their new collapsible engine hoists a couple of years back. I used it twice the first year, thats a total of about going up and down 4 or 5 times. I got it back out this past summer to lift an old Desoto bare engine block and the thing would not go up past 90° then it would leak down and not pump at all. Four times and its shot. Now you can move the ram in and out with your hand. Some quality. I would fix it but I don't trust it. Think I will try to find a good American made hydraulic cylinder for the framework.
