Re: ford 1937 jack
Not to discourage the original poster from staying original, but I use a scissor jack from a modern car. In my opinion, it is the safest option and easier to store.

Re: ford 1937 jack
It's nice to have the original jack in the trunk of your original car, but if you really need to jack up your car.... to maybe change a flat, it would be best to leave that original jack right there in the trunk. Lin Stacy will tell you the same thing. As 40cpe said, get yourself a modern scissor jack, cus they are a lot easier to store, plus they don't leak out like a hydraulic jack can, or will in time, especially the ones coming into this country today

I have come to understand these jacks were made for many automotive companies with only slight variations. They were also made for stores like Coast to Coast, Montgomery ward, etc. Many, like the one in post #3 are often thought to be 'correct" but are as you stated not.

Re: ford 1937 jack
The socket for the jack handle can be easily changed from round to flat by taking out the pivot pin. Mike, were there 2 makers of those jacks , auscolift and some other?
As others have said Lin Stacy is the go to guy for tools. |

Re: ford 1937 jack
Ditto for the scissor jack ( Lube on the screw ) some wood block, 2 by 4 or 4 by 4.
Remember always chock block, I've got two, solid rubber, and hollow rubber ( I like an old brick). However the wheels on my avatar need the big ones.

They both look identical to one another sans the cast identification on the respective bodies. The Ausco is green, the RH is black.
