I have a 1.5 ton aluminum mostly now for travel as they are fairly light and a 3 ton low profile for the bulk of my work. The 1.5 ton is marginal in height travel but works well getting the 240 up on stands at a lower height.
I haven't had any issues other that the 1.5 ton needs to be bled every now and then. Perhaps due to exceeding it's limits!
The steel 3 ton currently on sale through today is a great price. If you find someone to repair the old one it would likely cost allot more than that.
