Dale your jack bracket must have been made for a different jack. The N.Z. carriers were originally issued with a Ford light truck jack that was not up to the job. Maybe this was the case in Australia as well? Just my thoughts as a few of you have brackets that are too high.
Your carrier is looking great! Well done!

I personally think that it's a graphite impregnated fibre of some sort. When you rub your finger over one, it leaves a residue similar to that of a pencil. Which lead (no pun intended..) me to the graphite idea. We still use graphite bushings today, so could be a viable theory?
Someone else will know for sure. Great job on the restoration by the way. Alex

Today I finished off the LHR bogie station some NOS parts , Took 80 tons on the press plus heat to remove pivot pin for the bogie arm after 70 or so years . All's factory fresh now . Tomorrow road wheel to go on then refit back onto carrier , this means all my running gear is spot on ..
