Ranger RTJ-1100 1/2-Ton Capacity Transmission Jack

Description

Support heavy truck transmissions safely using the Ranger RTJ-1100 Transmission Jack 5150442, which positions heavy gearboxes with a two-stage hydraulic telescopic ram. The foot pedal pump raises 1,000 lbs to a 71in maximum lift height, though rolling this 130 lbs steel jack over floor drains requires two workers.

Ranger fabricates the wide base from heavy-gauge structural plate steel, fitted with 4 steel swivel casters to maintain stability under elevated loads. The two-stage chrome-plated hydraulic ram runs on internal hydraulic fluid, operating through a foot-operated pump pedal. The jack weighs 130.5 lbs bare, presenting floor base dimensions of 34in long by 34in wide.

Key Features of Ranger 5150442

Automotive technicians buy Ranger 5150442 transmission jacks to drop gearboxes, transfer cases, and differential units from vehicles on two-post lifts. Check distributor pricing to equip your automotive service bays with certified two-stage hydraulic transmission jacks.

• A 1,000 lbs lifting capacity supports commercial light truck transmissions, differentials, and transfer cases.
• Two-stage telescoping hydraulic ram extends from 37in collapsed height to 71in maximum elevation.
• A foot-operated hydraulic pump pedal frees up technician hands to align bellhousing guide studs.
• The fully adjustable universal saddle tilts forward, backward, and side to side using threaded screw handles.
• Safety anchor chains wrap around the transmission case to prevent component tipping during descent.
• Four 3in steel swivel casters allow exact positioning under vehicle undercarriages.
• An internal overload safety valve stops operation if transmission weight exceeds 1/2-Ton capacity.

Two Stage Hydraulic Cylinder Dyno Metrics

Proof testing subjects the extended two-stage ram to 1,500 lbs static proof load with zero hydraulic bypass. The foot pump lifts 1,000 lbs to full 71in height in 26 pump strokes. Saddle tilt screw threads hold set angles with under 0.0020in deflection under load. Ram settling measures under 0.0010in per hour under static load holding tests.

Saddle Tilt Usability Service Rules

The saddle tilt screw handles turn with 3 lbs of hand effort, allowing exact angular alignment with engine blocks. Do not buy this transmission jack for supporting vehicle frames, heavy diesel highway tractor transmissions, or outdoor gravel lots. Lubricate the saddle tilt adjustment screws with NLGI 2 grease every 30 operating days. Check hydraulic fluid level every 90 days. Grease caster wheel bearings every 6 months.
