Default Dingo Jack Handle ?

I picked up a nice original jack for a Dingo the other day, but there was no handle with it. Would someone be able to post a picture of what the handle looks like, ( So I know what to look for ). I think it should have a hook in one end, and is it a 2 piece handle??
The standard 4 ton carrier jacks are similar in shape but handles are totally different, Thanks.

Check this link as it's an ended eBay auction that had an incomplete jack with handle. There are a couple of jacks which fit the Dingo bracket which were both made by this same company. Mine has the same month and year as this one that recently sold. I'm on the road until this weekend but can shoot photos of mine once home if you need to see what the top extension looks like since the eBay example is lacking that part. Can also get you measurements at that time if nobody else helps out before then. Assuming of course you have this same type jack and not the earlier war pattern or the postwar type.

Marc,
I have never seen a jack handle like yours. I have had two 'Daimler' jacks and both have come with the same style handle as shown in the eBay listing. I still have one, if you need measurements. The only difference between the two, was that one had a detachable 'T' piece or tommy bar.

Regards,

Les
