    New Jack option.

    The BST2000 online specification is definitely wrong for the version Blackwoods sells. I guess it's possible there is slightly different versions kicking around.
    On mine, up to approx 1mm of the diameter will be paint, so grinding the jack top is quite viable, just not as neat and tidy as the lathe.
    The lathe task is very easy, so long as you can get access to a lathe. As you can see, you only require a small benchtop lathe.

    I still prefer the Omega because it has a longer stroke than the Kinchrome:
    Kinchrome - 120mm stroke + 80mm screw
    Omega - 201mm stroke + 60mm screw

    I assumed this was the size of the round top which would fit into the adapter. If it is then the specs are wrong as the diameter of the this bit is around 33mm I believe as other have found.

    May be it is the diameter.er before the powder coated or something or their specs are just wrong or they refer to a different part of the Jack

    The long and short is that as others have stated you will have to lathe the adapter, grind the head of the bts2000 or get another Jack

    Interesting. I bought the one that was on Amazon for $50 which we thought was the same as the local (although different part numbers - this says Omega 10025. Anyway, the round head on mine is 25mm diameter so fits in the adapter, albeit with a bit of room to spare.

    If you remove the grub screw you will be able to replace it with a bolt,it will hold the adaptor in place.Knowing Lindsay it will only be metric,looks to be around 6mm

    Yep, M6. I ran an M6 tap through it to clean it out after the lathe.
