I am trying to find out who else is using a Kel-Eaze Wramp, from Kel-Tec Innovations. Bought mine in 2006 and been very happy with it. The manufacturer's website, kel-eaz.com, is no more.
If you have one, have you found a satisfactory replacement jack? The original lasted years, now I am swapping out almost once a year. I have been using parts houses 4 ton jacks. I modify the base casting and drill it to fit the lift base plate. I cut the original jack screw off at its base, cut off the new jack's screw and run it into the jack, and screw the old screw and clevis back in. Saves welding the clevis to the new jack's screw every time.
I have been wondering about going to an electric or manual screw jack, but haven't found anything that will work. The retracted length has to be right at a 4 ton hydralic jack length -- 7 to 8 inches high.
Comments/suggestions appreciated!!
