Is yours the Harbor Freight 2-ton foldable hoist? Looking at the specs on that now, besides the weight capacity, the 2 ton unit gives more boom reach - 42" - 63-1/2", compared to 36-1/4" - 50-1/4" for the 1 ton unit. Price is about $50 more, before any coupons. I had my concerns about the casters too, they are a bit on the cheap side.
