Anyone have a good picture of the behind the seat Jack for a 55-2 3100? I have seen a lot of jacks, (and some of them would probably fit) and I would like to be looking for the right one. Thanks.

When I get home from work I can post a picture of the jack in my 56 which should be the same as a 55.2 if that is what you have (I can't see facebook at work).

If anyone has a picture of a 53 3100 jack that would be nice also.

Some jacks are shown on this page (click on each photo).
The 1953 truck jack specifications are shown on this page.

Jacks and tools were standard equipment, but they are hard to find. They must have rattled-around too much, so they were removed? Or, they were taken out and not put back into their place under the seat?

Thanks Tim. I have to have them, the search begins. With patience I'm sure I can find them. I found a fulton traffic light viewer new in the box.

Thanks Tomctomc That's exactly what I was looking for. Does that have the U shaped top, or the round top to it?

it has a shallow U or tray shape to it which looks like it is intended to accept the front or rear axle...
