anybody have an unused hi lift/trail jack laying around? pm me, thanks!

Come and get it! I can't get near those things without getting my clock cleaned. It's trapped under the bench behind some sheetrock waiting for another chance at me.

Possible. I'll sneak a look at it in the dark while it's sleeping and see if it's ready for prime-time.

It's good you're in the USA since that's only a Canada away.

Took a look. It's a Hi-Lift model HL-480 good for 7000#. 50 Inches long, weighs 28#. There's a slight bend in the main post probably from being landed on when it all went sideways. Mild surface rust and dust.

PM an email address or text number and I can send photos. Open to shipping ideas.

I've only used them a few times and been lucky. They take big swings at me from freaky ninja angles while they try to eat my fingers. Suprised they're made in the USA. Seems like a revenge weapon.

Since I drug it out I decided to clean it up a little and tore it down to do a good job. As much as they swing at me I have to say that Hi-Lift jacks are well built out of stout material. Mine came with a piece of land I bought. I don't know how long it lay in the rain and snow.

Found a good 5 minute youtube video that covers the basics I never heard about titled:
"Safe Hi Lift Jack Use" by BleepinJeep and the Southern Four Wheel Drive Association.

Don't know how to post links, sorry. Internet is still new around here.
