Just Say No: Torin Aluminum Racing Jack 1.5 Ton
Two instances of this model were observed doing exactly the same thing: blowing the gasket when the lift height exceeds their design value.
You don't get a warning - it's just the next time you pump the handle to lift the car a bit more, it suddenly goes quite a bit down instead of a little bit up, and you see a puddle of oil on the floor under the jack.
Come on, even my old $19.95 Larin jack has the safety valve, for this price the thing must be tolerant to such a simple condition... Wonder if there was a bad batch, and whether Torin is going to issue a recall.
