Brute! Is this like the M715 stock jack?

I dont have the pic but I am trying to get it again...

Isnt it a little odd that none of us with these trucks has the original jack? They either must have been junk and broke a lot, or there was some other reason that people threw them away or thought that they could use them for something else entirely. I will have to talk to my friend with the complete stock M715s. He probably has a few of them on his trucks.

I had one but was told it was the wrong one and believed that...it didnt work right and I threw it in the scrap pile and took it to the metal salvage...4 years later I found out how stupid I was...

Might have happened to many of them...course they may have been lost or removed in service and most didnt go with the trucks when sold from military ownership...

I suspect like many of the pioneer tools they were pulled aside then sold later in large lots to the surplus dealers. Something like a jack though, probably wasn't of much resale value or use, so they probably went off to the scrappers.

Here are some pics of the jack I found in my M715





Is it an original one ?
I'm in the same case than Duane, I can't see the previously posted pics.

That is not an original jack. The original was a screw-type jack.
