Welcome to my restoration channel! This is a restoration video of a Snap-on Floor Jack (YA 700 2 1/2 Ton) I purchased this from a guy off of Facebook Marketplace for $120 USD. The person I bought it from said it had a slow leak. Let me know if you like this jack restoration!
THE RESTORATION PROCESS
After getting this jack into the shop, I dismantled it and began cleaning the parts. After tearing the jack apart, I sand blasted a lot of the parts and also used paint remover. The jack frame was too large to fit into our small sand blasting cabinet, so I used wire wheels and wire brushes to clean the metal before priming. The hydraulic cylinder was torn apart and rebuilt before priming or paint due to the way they are put together. It appeared to me that these jacks were painted after some or all assembly. I was able to replace the seals in the hydraulic unit as it appeared to have a leak. The u-cup was brittle and stuck in the cylinder below the nylon ring. The rebuild kit was purchased online as well as the new caster wheels and handle accessories. During the tear down, I accidentally broke the pin housing on the yoke. It was quite the process to repair due to being cast. We heated the part before welding, then we heated it after welding and placed in some sand/media to cool the part down slowly to prevent further cracking. I was able to get a steel tube from a local shop to fab the handle.
Overall I am happy how the jack restoration turned out. The jack works great as shown at the end of the restoration video. It is smooth and can be lowered with slow control which is what I want in a good floor jack. It is almost too pretty to use, but…we will be using it.
