I have a 30yo 2-ton Sears floor jack at home. It's a good one that they
would probably rate higher today. The problem is that the wheels are SO
noisy while moving it. I was thinking of painting the wheels with
"Rhino Liner" type urethane material.

When mine gets noisy, I find that merely lubing the wheels makes moving
the jack remarkably quieter.

Plain old 30W works great for me... depending on use, I need a few drops
in each wheel a couple or three times a year.

Try it first, you might be pleasantly surprised... as always, YMMV.

Good Luck!

Yea, I suppose the wheels SHOULD rotate...that might quiet them down some.
