Made In The USA
 Since 1912

Weaver's History includes not only the Jack Production, but also a variety of many Automotive Products, some of which are no longer made.  Weaver started producing Automotive Products around the turn of the century. The Weaver Manufacturing Company was incorporated in 1910.  Weaver Jack's earliest Jack was advertised in 1912 and was issued a patent  in 1914.  Mechanical Jacks and hybrid Hydraulic Jacks  were produced until the introduction of the fully hydraulic model in 1928.

Other Weaver Products included Safety Test Lane Equipment --Brake Testers and Alignment Testers - which are still currently manufactured by Weaver Jack Corporation.  Previous product lines included Automotive and Heavy Truck Lifts, Brake Tools, Hydraulic Presses, Headlight Testers and many other items.

Weaver began in Springfield, Illinois around the turn of the century.  A large complex of buildings composed the original Weaver Factory on South Ninth  Street.  These buildings are all gone now, (having burned down) with the exception of the Original Test Building. This building is currently in use by an automotive repair shop, and it still contains the original test installations of the Automotive Lift Division.

Acquired by Dura Corporation (formerly Detroit Harvester) in 1973,  the Weaver Operations were moved to Ford Mills Road in Paris, Kentucky.  In 1977, the current  Weaver Jack Corporation was established  in Adrian, Michigan, where it operates to this day.  In 1989, the Weaver Lift Division was acquired by Rotary Lift of  Madison, Indiana.  Rotary Lift then transferred ownership of the Weaver Safety Test  Lane Division to the Weaver Jack Corporation of Adrian, Michigan.  The Weaver Brake Tester, which is the worlds' most widely accepted and used Brake Tester, along with the Weaver Alignment Tester is still manufactured in Adrian, Michigan today.

Weaver Lift Division, which had been one of the major forces in automotive lift equipment since circa 1910, was then discontinued by it's new owner, Rotary Lift.  To this date, there are still thousands of operating Weaver Lifts.  Parts for these lifts are still available from aftermarket vendors.
