Hi All,

I am thinking about purchasing a vintage car jack to compliment my Series 2 Land Rover. It doesn't have to be 100% original Land Rover. I was thinking something period might be nice..

I have done some research that indicates that some Land Rover's came with "Shelley" branded jacks, but I have not been able to find any of these for sale.

I have seen some vintage car jacks advertised with no brand names but numbers. Eg:
"Jack No 102"
"Jack No 216"
"Jack No 111"

Do any of the above suit?
Due to the height/weight of a standard series land rover, do any vintage car jacks suit?
Should I try and purchase an original Land Rover jack? If so - what is standard for an Australian Series 2 Land Rover?

Any help is greatly appreciated!

Try searching ebay UK, the shelley style jack was also used on the original 2 door rangies with "Leys" in the casting.
