The floor jack could have leaking seals. Or the jack could be low on fluid, or the pressure release screw might not be closing properly.
The 36 indicates it is a 3 ton unit. 12 would be a 1 ton, 24 is a 2 ton, 36 is a 3 ton, 48 is a 4 ton, and 60 is a 5 ton. There are also half ton sizes available, so if those digits were 30 it would be a 2.5 ton, 42 would be a 3.5 ton, etc.
A ton is also slang for 100, not just darts but any 100 can be called a ton
The Dodge Dart was considered an intermediate size vehicle. A half ton or three quarter ton vehicle would refer to pick-up trucks.
Go to the Library and read about it. Because of the vintage of the van, you would be better off trying to repair the climate controller, than trying to replace it. The only place you will be able to find another one is at a salvage yard. And they will want a heavy sum for it.
around 50 ton jack
Assuming you have checked the hydraulic fluid and it's OK, you could look into replacing the seals on the compression cylinder, but with jacks as inexpensive as they are these days, it would be easier and maybe even cheaper to replace the jack. I routinely see two-ton jacks on sale at automotive stores for $20-30. just check the rubber seling at bucket's bottom of the ram and plunger they wear of.f
If the jack drifts down when weight is on it, the seals are failing. The jack would be unsafe at that point.
Yes. The dealer has a tool for that.
You would need a hydraulic jack with a lifting capacity of at least 3.5 tons (7,000 pounds divided by 2,000 pounds per ton) to safely lift 7,000 pounds. It's always best to choose a jack with a slightly higher weight capacity than your intended load for safety and stability.
The solution to Car Ton Jack is: Jack in the box for Jack in Carton.
Most local car stores sell jacks which range from tractor lifting to scooter lifting capacity. Most car jacks can lift up to 5.0 ton, so i would say around £20 for a decent jack, or around $25-30
its gay
yes. a ton is 2000 pounds. and if the jack is a 2 ton capable jack then its able to hold 4000 pounds
Hydraulic pressure required to lift a one ton load will depend on factors such as the size of the hydraulic cylinder, the mechanical advantage of the system, and frictional losses. As a rough estimate, for a simple hydraulic system with a one square inch piston and a one ton load (2000 pounds), you would need a pressure of 2000 psi to lift the load.
In theory an air jack could be used, but hydraulic jacks are standard for setting mobile homes. Two 12 ton bottle jacks are usually sufficient for the job.
The floor jack could have leaking seals. Or the jack could be low on fluid, or the pressure release screw might not be closing properly.
