Chris,
That jack is often substituted on Dingos as the baseplate slides in the stowage the same, but the body is fatter and top pad is larger than the correct one. The retainer in the photo has been bent to suit and also relies on the web strap, whereas with the correct jack, the retainer is hooked on and jack screwed up until it is held firm.

This looks like the Jack shown on the Dingo.

Hi Rich,
That jack is the one in the photo and was still being produced for the last 4 ton Bedfords as part of the kit. There is an extension that slides on top pad if needed for extra height.

Thanks for the replies guys. Does anybody have any other pictures of what the actual dingo jack looks like?

Here is the correct one, with and without the extension.

Hi Chris,

Some more photos of a Dingo jack with the correct handle can be seen in the Carrier forum. Search for Mk2 carrier jack. Post #23, 24, 25.
