    Default Does anyone own an antuque Kangaroo Jack ?

    I have an antique Kangaroo Jack, it is solid & very heavy.
    It looks as if there is a spring broken or missing.
    If anyone has a complete one in working order, or know about them I would like to hear from them

    Col,

    I have one that I use to lift logs.

    I got mine from Burnsy and one of the springs was corroded and had lost it's springiness so I replace it with one from bunnings.

    You are welcome to look at or even borrow it.

    I would take some pics for you but it is at the Milling yard in Wattylup whereas I am closer to town.

    Cheers
    Bob

    I think there are a few different types, even from the same manufacturer, so it might be best to post a picture of what you have.

    I kept an old Wallaby jack that was missing parts, for some years in the hope of finding another I could copy the parts off. I even found a picture of one on the net, but I couldn't see the detail well enough. I threw the jack away about two months ago in disgust.
