VEVOR Hydraulic Long Ram Jack 8 Ton (17363 lb) — Blue, 26–45.7" Lift Range, Single-Piston Pump

VEVOR's Hydraulic Long Ram Jack is an 8-ton, single-piston pump ram designed to convert shop cranes and engine hoists into a higher, easier-to-use lifting system.

This heavy-duty long ram jack extends the reach of most hydraulic cranes and engine hoists, giving you a 19.7" stroke and a 26"–45.7" lift range so taller lifts are possible without modifying your hoist. Built from powder-coated high-grade steel with an integrated oil bypass and overload valve, the unit aims to be a durable, serviceable addition to home garages and professional shops. It comes with a clevis-style base and a manual handle for simple installation and operation; the design is for vertical use only.

How much weight can this ram jack handle and what are the key specs?

The ram is rated for an 8-ton (17,363 lb) maximum load and is engineered to meet both residential and light-commercial lifting requirements. Key dimensions and mechanical details help you confirm compatibility with existing equipment.

• Lifting capacity: 8 tons / 17,363 lbs
• Lift range: minimum 26 in (66 cm), maximum 45.7 in (116 cm)
• Stroke: 19.7 in (50 cm); piston rod diameter 1.2 in (3 cm)
• Weight: 20.5 lb (9.3 kg); pinhole diameter 0.7 in (1.7 cm)

Will this long ram jack mount to my existing shop crane or engine hoist?

The jack uses a clevis-style base and a standard pinhole size so it mounts directly to most cranes and hoists that accept long ram attachments. Check your hoist's upper and lower clevis allowance and the 0.7" pinhole diameter to ensure a secure fit.

• Clevis base for direct mounting to shop cranes
• 0.7" pinhole fits common hoist pins—verify hole alignment
• Vertical-use orientation only; not for side-loading or offset applications

How does the hydraulic system protect against overload and oil leakage?

The cylinder integrates an oil-bypass and an overload valve that help prevent the ram from overextending or sustaining pressure-related damage. The polished piston rod plus a Y-style polyurethane sealing ring and backup ring reduce wear and oil drift for longer service life.

• Built-in oil-bypass prevents overextension
• Overload valve protects hydraulic components under extreme loads
• Polyurethane sealing ring and backup ring minimize oil bypass and leakage

How easy is it to operate and maintain this jack in a garage setting?

Operation is manual using the included handle and glide-action single piston pump, designed to lift heavy loads with reduced effort. Routine maintenance is straightforward: keep the cylinder clean, check seals periodically, and store the unit upright to protect the hydraulic oil and seals.

• Single-piston pump with rubberized handle for easier pumping
• Powder-coated, lead-free finish resists oil, grease, and dirt
• Periodic seal inspections and cleanliness extend service life

Who is this for: The VEVOR Hydraulic Long Ram Jack is aimed at DIY mechanics, small repair shops, and hobbyists who need to raise an existing shop crane or engine hoist higher and more efficiently. It suits users who want a heavy-duty, compact upgrade that mounts directly to most cranes and provides a long stroke for taller lifts without fabricating custom extensions.
