Product Information

Full details

The VEVOR 8-ton hydraulic long ram jack is an essential tool for professional mechanics, farmers, and DIY automotive enthusiasts who require reliable, heavy-duty lifting power for engine hoists and shop cranes. It offers a substantial 17,600 lbs load capacity and a versatile lifting stroke of nearly 20 inches, making it perfect for complex mechanical repairs. However, users should note that its minimum height of 26 inches means it is not suitable for low-clearance lifting tasks and must be used with compatible hoist mounting brackets.

FAQs

What is the maximum weight capacity?

The jack is rated for a maximum capacity of 8 tons, or 17,600 lbs.

Can I use this for a vehicle frame?

This is a long ram jack intended for use with engine hoists and cranes, not for lifting a vehicle chassis directly.

How do I add hydraulic fluid?

Remove the oil fill plug on the cylinder and top off with high-grade hydraulic jack oil while the ram is fully retracted.

What is the lifting stroke length?

The jack provides a lifting stroke of 19.7 inches.

Does it come with mounting pins?

The jack generally utilizes the existing pins from your current engine hoist; please verify your hoist pin diameter.

Troubleshooting

Jack does not lift to full height

Check the hydraulic fluid level and bleed the air from the system by opening the release valve and pumping the handle several times.

Load lowers slowly during use

The release valve may not be fully closed or there may be debris on the valve seat; tighten the valve firmly or clean it.

Handle feels 'spongy' during pumping

This indicates trapped air in the hydraulic circuit; perform a system bleed as described in the manual.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High 8-ton lifting capacity for heavy-duty tasks
  • Generous 19.7-inch lifting stroke
  • Robust steel construction for long-term durability
  • User-friendly handle for comfortable operation

Cons

  • High minimum height limits use to specific hoist applications
  • Heavier than manual scissor jacks
  • Requires professional-grade mounting hardware for safety

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation requires aligning the base and top mounting clevis pins of your hoist with the jack’s connection points. Ensure all pins are locked with cotter pins before applying any load. Compatibility is generally universal for hydraulic cranes that accept standard long ram cylinders, but verify the pin diameter of your hoist before purchase. For care, keep the piston rod clean and free of grit to prevent seal damage. Periodically check for hydraulic fluid leaks around the seal area and store the jack in a vertical position when not in use to prevent air from entering the hydraulic system.
