MK 2 carrier jack.

Hi Ron here are some pictures of a Canadian one, courtesy of a Canadian forum member.
I don't know what the British carriers came with.

Thanks Lynn but I have one of those. It's the bottle jack I was referring to.

It can have either a Walker 3 ton model 925 or the manual also lists the auto specialty brand. Here is a link to a thread that covers the jack: http://www.mapleleafup.net/forums/sh...73&postcount=6

Auto Specialties was out of Windsor ON. Here is a link to a site about them: http://www.internationalmetropolis.c...alties-mfg-co/

While Bruce states that the proper jack should have the large button on top, I note the manual drawings show the normal size button.

The Walker 925 is somewhat common, and was used both commercially and on many US military vehicles over the years. They have not been produced for quite a while, but rebuild kits are still available for them.

Thanks very much for that Rob. I tried a forum search for 'carrier jack' but got no result.

Cheers Ron

Does anyone know what bottle jack a British carrier would have used?

Hi Ron,
I am pretty sure the jack on a Dingo was termed a "Light Tank" jack and was also seen on the Vickers Light Tanks,, so probably the one issued to British Carriers .... unless someone knows different !

is the british jack the same as the one issued as part of the CES on the 4 tonner (the one with the square base)?
