Jack for perentie

[Jonnooh]

Hi, I have a jackless perentie. Can you buy the original jack or should I just try to get a generic? I understand this was a bottle jack. I've also heard that high lift jacks aren't much chop due to flexing...

Thanks

Jon

no you cant buy the original jack new they do very occasionally come up for sale in lots at auctions, you can buy ones that are close though.

changed a tyre on a truck a few weeks ago. It had a squat jack with a large square base bolted to it to allow it easy to slid under. The pump action was horizontal. It was a factory supplied jack I think was a canter or small Isuzu.


Boss has been buying jacks recently for odd jobs and trailers. Purchased a good Armstrong jack for a fuel trailer-1500Kg with landcruiser wheels.
with a flat tyre its vey close to the ground but you need long stroke to get a new tyre on.


The first time I used it the small first stage full extended, then dropped back in allowing the larger primary stage to pop out as I removed the wheel nuts.


I use a hilux jack in my ser 3.

Hi guys, I need a jack for my perentie also, are we saying a Bottle type is the best option? And what hights do we need to reach 60cm max?

High lift Perentie Jacks are for sale on landybitz, this looks the same as the one I got with my 1991 Perentie RFSV

I just bought a suitably rated bottle jack. I'm not sure why people get hung up on trying to find the original.

Same here. I just bought a D1 jack.

Would start with a bottle jack first.....hi-lift jack would be at the bottom of my wish list.

It's a collectors thing. You either get it, or you don't.

bottle jack for tyre changing, hilift/ wallaby/ jackall/ for recovery only.

I have the hilift, so for now I will just use a block of wood under her when changing tyres.
It came with a heavy lump of Jarrah in one of the carriers (with screws screwed into one side for some unknown reason), I guess this was to go under the jack.
