when looking for parts for my old hein warner i found an interesting comment from an old jack man, the main reason for leaking is when you are pumping the jack the piston that goes in and out carries dirt and grim into the jack itself, making some kind of wiper or always cleaning the piston extends the life considerably
The part on top at 3:47 is a vent. You may have bought the wrong part. The new one in your hand is usually for the newer jacks. Your jack might be older requiring a different vent. The old style vents are still being sold, it has a different part number I believe.
@@ImpalamansGarage I had to replace mine because it was made of plastic and broke, but the part number I used was #227095. The thread size was 7/16 - 20. If that helps anyone looking for one. BTW: Very good video.
I added a link to part 2 at the end of this video at 20:37. Also there is a new playlist on the channel entitled "Walker Floor Jack Model 93632 1.5 Ton - Rebuild" which contains both videos.
Was that a 3/4 impact or 1/2 I machined/welded/made a nice socket thing similar to yours and I've been trying with a 1/2 impact, but I'm thinking is that a 3/4" impact your using..? Anyway, very grateful for the 2 videos, very helpful for rebuilding this poor jack that was left on the side of the road in Bloomfield, NJ. If I can get that big nut off, rest'll be good; I have the seal kit.
A very weak 1/2 inch impact gun. A modern 20 volt battery unit would make quick business of it. My air setup is only good for about 100psi on tools. Would like a 175 psi setup so I could run 3/4 and 1 inch stuff. Glad you found the video useful. Cheers.
Is the Walker jack one from the 1960s? My dad got one for his 21st bday and wants to get it fixed. Looks like it's pretty straight forward as well. Thanks a bunch for sharing the video!
I have not been able to remove the pin from the pump assemble. It appears to be frozen. I have been trying to drive it out by using a punch on the smaller end but it will not budge. Any suggestions? Do I need to find someone who has a hydraulic press?
You might try soaking it for a while. Soak it in a small container filled with a 50/50 mix of transmission fluid (or Marvel Mystery oil) and acetone. Let it soak for a day or so. Also you might try some heat. Use a MAP gas torch (yellow bottle) and heat up the large center part through which the pin protrudes. Don't apply heat directly to the pin itself. You want the parts AROUND the pin to get hotter than the pin so that the hole will get larger. While it's still hot, try to tap out the pin.
Thanks, I'll give that a try. I'm also having no luck getting the top nut off the pump. I made a tool like yours and used my 20v electric impact wrench but still no success. Any suggestions?@@ImpalamansGarage
Oh, is it done? Sorry, I must have nodded off. It's late here. thought we were gonna work on the Merc today. Just kidding. I always like seeing things being put together. Tomorrow?
Depends on your motivation. Does it work? Do you need a floor jack? Keep in mind it's just a floor jack and they are not really worth that much. Selling it won't get you that much. I just get tired of buying cheap over-seas made crap.
It not really supposed to. Mine did because it was in bad shape. The socket will need to be notched in the middle to accommodate the piston. See part two in this video series for more details on this.
@ImpalamansGarage OK. I gotcha I did make something very similar with the cut out. My 1/2 impact won't take it off. I see some other videos where it's a big nut rather than the 2 notches.
as you can see all that crud inside the jack had to get there someway, look at your jack where the piston goes in and out as i said in comment below, we all let our jacks get dirty, and every time you jack it up you drag more crud in. and no i haven't found a way to stop it yet, and now that im 80 yrs old i probably won't.
Hey man I know it’s been a while since you made this video so you probably won’t remember but do you know what size the pipe adapter so got was? Inner diameter
@@ImpalamansGarage thanks for the reply I ended up going to the local hardware store and got one from the plumbing isle. I made the same exact custom socket but it didn’t work out for me the tank nut was seized on. Before I did irreversible damage to the unit I stopped and sent it out the the “service company”
If you are using a mobile device, UA-cam purposefully makes it quite difficult to search for videos on a channel page. If you are using a regular computer it's very easy to do a specific search for a video from the channel page. That being said, here is part 2: ua-cam.com/video/gHjzQDej7H8/v-deo.html

@@charleskowalski7654 great info. Thanks!
When you got that to nut to come loose that you made the custom socket for with the impact, like and subscribed

Whats with the block and tackle to just put it on the bench!!!
I'm old. 🤣🤣 You gotta pick the jobs you stress your spine on. Some are worth it. Some not. A chain hoist is a pretty awesome thing. I recommend it.
That Jack weighs at least 100 lbs lol
@@zoticus1 durn tootin !!
@@zoticus1 yes, it’s all American steel. Made in the USA before our government sold us out to Red China!!!
I can second that, probably around 100 lbs. Maybe more..?
Some people, some times, some jobs, you gotta try to find an easier way.
Nice video same jack I have. Were is part 2 ? I cant find it . Opps found it thanks.
how did you get the piston out before you got the gland nut off??
Was that a 3/4 impact or 1/2

I had hell getting c clip back on pump until
How in the heck do you remember where all the different parts go to put it back together!?
Sometimes I use plastic bags and a sharpie if a project is complex.
Thank you for a very good video.
Pretty sure those big side nuts are 1-5/16"
Is the Walker jack one from the 1960s? My dad got one for his 21st bday and wants to get it fixed. Looks like it's pretty straight forward as well. Thanks a bunch for sharing the video!
I'm not sure of the date actually. From the looks of it, I'd say 60s or 70s.
I have not been able to remove the pin from the pump assemble. It appears to be frozen. I have been trying to drive it out by using a punch on the smaller end but it will not budge. Any suggestions? Do I need to find someone who has a hydraulic press?

LOL.... It's nearly done. Lot of work. Decided on a two parter.
After I finish this jack I'm planning to do some pop pressure testing and balancing on the Merc's injectors.
@@ImpalamansGarage Yea! Lol. It's morning now so I promise not to nod off again. Lol
I have an all American Lincoln (made in the USA), should I keep it or sell it? It’s the same model and everything.

How u get the piston out before u take the nut off

I have one that needs a kit
But not sure where to get it from ???

Great tip sir! It sounds a good idea to cover the jack when not in use.
Hey man I know it’s been a while since you made this video so you probably won’t remember but do you know what size the pipe adapter so got was? Inner diameter
The pipe came from the electrical isle at Lowes. It was a conduit fitting of some sort.

Very similar to the Blackhawk sj2 im rebuilding
