Jack is jacked!
Hello all,
The fancy red Italian bottle jack on my 03 DII is (half) jacked. The smaller, inside ram doesn't raise anymore. Just stops when it gets to the end of the large ram travel. Tried topping off the hydraulic fluid but no luck.
Is there any fixing these things or is it not worth it? If not, what's a good replacement?
Thanks,
-- Jason

I recently found out that my factory jack was totally non-functional during a lucky “just out of curiosity” check. Honestly, a new bottle jack is so inexpensive off amazon I can hardly think of a reason to keep the original. I keep my jack in the back so a slightly different size isn’t important to me, but its something you will want to check if you keep yours in the original spot under the hood.

Wait a minute....which storage cubbies? Am I a donkey and have been missing these for the oh, 8 years I've had this vehicle? I'd run out and look but I'm chained to Zoom. I need a DiscoCam in the vehicle!
