Bump, still looking for parts....

Hey Lance,

Auction ended a few weeks ago but had no bidders. Might be what you need and he had it opening for 12GBPs so would be worth contacting him.

Thanks Dave, I picked up two recently, these are the types.

i'm fairly sure these jacks are/were still in use as part of the 4 tonner equipment schedule.

Quite right Rick, that is the jack issued to Bedford RL and MK, etc. Do not think it is correct for a WW2 Humber, the base plate is the same size and it will fit the stowage on a Humber, Dingo, etc, but body is larger and different shape to WW2 ones. Usually a date and NATO number on the other side as well.

These are the two that I have. I had a correct one for my Dingo, but it went with the sale. Is the third jack correct for something? Fourth pic is the correct jack I assume.

Sorry to slightly hijack the thread but on the sublect of jacks, I'm looking for a Lake and Elliot HY960 4 ton bottle jack. Very similar to the 'standard' L&E hydraulic jack but the handle rotates back and forth rather than up and down.

Anybody have one?

BUMP... need a Solex 40RZINEO/C654/0 carb BAD....

Lance; I believe your first one (Ern Lake) is a Carrier jack. What date is on it please?
I'd suggest the " correct one" is also originally carrier equipment. Is it dated 1943?
Richard;

I can't see these really short jacks being original issue to an R.L. Bedford, (However, I can see the QMS issuing them for same)
My two Ern Lake 4 tonners are dated 1940 and 1941. I have seen a few different makes of the same type in cast steel and ally, one of which was a Britool at 4 1/2 ton (if my memory serves me correctly. A U.K. based forum member has told me of them, bearing 1960's dates, on epay.

Lynn,
I can assure you those jacks were part of the MK and RL kit and I have carried one on my QL for 20 years or more, they have a higher lift than you might imagine and there should be an extension block that slides over the top. Always carry a wood board as well in case of having to jack on softer ground.

Unfortunately I do not know the dates, they are sitting in the UK at the moment..

I have a new Solex carb but can't identify its use: 35 RZFA IPO. Perhaps it is similar to the one you need. Perhaps someone can identify an application.

Brian/..
The Bedford uses a Solex 35 carb..
As do many other vehicles from a "Douche Bowl" (2CV Citroen )to a Ford Jeep..
But here is one that may be a hint in the right direction to identification..
Good luck..
