IMHO, on a shop tool that is such a major purchase, you might consider..
1. Wait the production out for the casting flaw to be fixed
2. Find a dealer that has old, unaffected stock.
3. Contact the factory and see if they will spring for an upgrade.

Very nice choice BTW!

i have considered the 2 ton, but i am one for over kill. "but not 10 ton"
cant find any dealers that have any 4 ton jacks just 2 ton
guess i will wait for the next run.
thx for your reply.
