Jacking Bar
I am looking to make a jacking bar for my carrier and borrowed one from a friend for the specifications so I can turn one down. Another friend I know also had one but it would not fit into the cross shaft as it was approximately .040 to large so he gave it to me to turn it down so that it would fit the tube. Here is the question, They are both different in size and overall length with one having a flat machined into it to fit the end of the jack better. Which one is for the Canadian carrier or were there two different ones made as it would be nice to know which one I should base the measurements from

Well this has been an overwhelming response . I guess this tool is rarer that the track jack. I machined up one like the larger bar and if anyone out there would like to make up one here are the dimensions.

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.
