Well it can’t get much clearer than that and the photos tell the whole story of what handles belong to what tool. Thank you very much Colin for your help.
Rob, we have some searching to do now at our favourite place to find rusty gold!
Stay tuned.
Regards,Derk

Colin,
I don't suppose you would be able to draw and post some sketches with measurements so I could make replicas of all three handles. I have the track jack and hydraulic jack and also the various sockets but none of the handles. Here in the UK I doubt that I will ever find originals.

Originals to copy would be ideal but though Surrey is not a big county I have not come across Andrew, do you have his surname or contact details or is he on MLU?

Default Maybe Maybe Maybe....

Dirk: I was looking at a flat bar amongst the stuff I'm selling. I have no idea what it is, but given the photos submitted, I could see it as being a Jack Handle. It's completely flat, approx. 18 inches long. One end is slightly "tapered" and if I remember, there's a hole in each end. It doesn't have a "bendy" in it. (I think that's a cool word). I'll take a photo of it on Saturday and post it.
Hope this works for you.
Robert

Default Okay....this is what I have.

Hi Dirk: Got out to the shop and took a photo of what I have. Not sure if I have a jack to go with it. (something tells me I do)
