Dave, Are there any part numbers on them? I think the Australian carrier has a bigger hole in the cross tube. but not sure and have nothing with me over here, to be able to give you a positive answer. I think all the riveted carriers from the northern hemisphere, have the same size hole (also not sure )
I have never seen one with a flat milled on it before (post military service?)
Sorry I can't be of more help.

The longer pattern you have is what we saw issued with the T-16 universal carriers. Odds are it is still functional with other carriers as well though. Rod Shaver in Arizona might still have them available.

Have a look on the end bit Dave, the strike is fairly light.

I made one up to Dave's dimesnions today, but the small diameter end seems a little too long. It gets hung up inside the cross tube, and has to be pried out. Does someone have the overall lengths of the Canadian jacking bar, and especially the length of the small end?

I checked the one I made and it fits perfectly in the end of the tube without binding, Is there possibly a difference in your tube ID compared to mine ??
