Hi,

Ive always had an old bottle type jack in my MkII BT7. I borrowed it from
the army many years ago. It was original to the so-called = and > ton Land
Rovers that we  had in such large quantities. (those rovers were good bits
of kits).

So, this jack greatly resembles photos Ive seen of the correct factory
issue jack, though Id say it is heavier duty.

This afternoon a friend gave me another. This one is red and, unlike mine,
is clearly marked Shelley. (Id say this one is heavier than the original&,
like mine, it has three levels which seems a bit excessive) It has a two
piece extension bar and is, I suppose, missing a t-bar to go through the end
of the bar. Am I right there?

What should be stamped on the correct jack?

What colour?

What exactly does it look like? A picture would be great.

Anything else?

Thanks,

Simon.
