This is the jack that was in my 71 R/T Challenger when I bought it. My Challenger had a June 16 SPD and has slots in both bumpers but I have no idea if the bumpers are original. I don't see any date code numbers just a couple 7's under where the jack hook pivots. The mast is 35 1/2" long. I am clueless when it comes to correct jacks but I have a feeling it isn't even a Mopar part? Thanks for any info.

Not a mopar jack. Slot type jack for another brand. Your car had a removable jack hook that clipped onto the mechanism part #2933102.
Thanks.
I was under the impression the new style slotted bumper and jack were used on late production 71 Challengers?

This what I found from http://www.challengerspecs.com/1971challenger.htm"The front bumper was carried over from the previous year until Feb. '71 when a new bumper was used. This then had to be changed again in June due to new safety requirements. Elastomeric front and rear bumpers became available for the Challenger in '71 but only in four colours. These were B5 blue, Y3 yellow, V2 hemi orange and, depending which reference you read, either C7 plum crazy or J6 green. From April '71 all painted bumpers were cancelled except for Y3 yellow for some reason."

My 71 challenger rt was also built on june 16th of 71. Unfortunately the previous owner replaced the bumpers with 71 stye bumpers and the jack was missing.
Can you tell if your bumpers are original to your car?
I can't tell for sure about the bumpers.
I did just have the rear bumper and brackets off and the bolts that hold the brackets to the car still had the thin factory washer? that holds the bolt in place while mounting.
all the hardware that was on the rear bumper and brackets appeared original.
I don't imagine it would say anything on the build sheet?

My buddie's '71 Challenger has a mid-'71 SPD and it also has the slotted bumpers which are original to the car. However, it still had the 102 hook jack assembly.

Makes sense as the older style hook jack probably still would work on a slotted bumper.
Maybe they used up the rest of the hook jacks even with the slotted bumpers.

Looks like a 72 up B body jack.
Looks like the jack that was in my 72 Charger. (It had the bumper slots) But then again it also looks like the jack that was for my 1974 Pontiac Firebird. Its been 25+ years since I've seen either one though.

Here is my 71 Challenger James is talking about. It also has a June 16th build date. Bumpers are original and never been off the car.

I have had the car since 09. Since then I've spoken to many 71 Challenger owners. In 2010 I spoke to a gentleman at the Nats in Ohio who had a 71 R/T Challenger. His Spd build date was exactly one week earlier on June 9th 71. He was the original owner of the car and only his front bumper was slotted. He also stated his bumpers were original to the car.
