Bumper Jack 71'GTX

Post by gary » Sun May 22, 2011 10:37 pm

Hi Everyone,,I need to know the correct length of the jack not including base.I thought i had the correct jack it was about 34"long (high).But It does not lift the rear end up enough.I have stock springs and 15"tires plus the correct green hook. Was there a taller jack? Thanks , Gary in Nashvile

My jack mast in my 71 SSP is 34" also. Since I haven't owned it since birth, I can't be 100% certain that it is original. Scott.

Hello Everyone,I have an update on the jack issue.There was a jack on e-bay over the summer for a 1971 B Body and the mast was 36" high ,that's 2"over the most popular 34"high mast.Soooo does anyone want to sell 36"long mast jack?
I have correct hook and base.
Thanks , Gary 71' GTX! :beer:
