It was copied from the pictures of an original. I do not see how it could fit any other way.

Jordan
It looks like you put the two notches on the wrong end in comparison with the opening. Here is a link to some examples you posted previously: http://www.mapleleafup.net/forums/sh...91&postcount=4 I have always seen the strap holding the jack into the block into the mount as Kevin alludes to. |

Look at the pictures again in that link. The notches are on the same end as the metal plate. I simply copied what I saw. It wouldn't surprise me if there were differences.

My apologies Jordan....I had to look at the one you made again. I did not see the metal plate.....it's so close to the same colour of the jack that without some contrast I was mistaken for what I was seeing.
Looks perfect. Now you need to make some more for re-sale. |

Back in 2014 I started making some new replacement engine covers for the Carrier. Well jump ahead to now and I finally finished them. I was stuck on making the handle portion due to trying to reliably bend them. Now that I have a shop press I figured why not give it a go. After a couple of trials I figured it out and pressed up 4 of the handles. Today I riveted then on. In the spring I'll get the panels blasted, primed and painted. One more mini project done.
