    Jack for perentie

    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

    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.

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

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