Guys,
What should a built 2/14/70 jack look like? The one I bought a few years back looks to be wrong when compared to Dave Walden's Challenger resto. More than one available or did I buy the wrong one? Also the lug wrench seems to be too short.

Thanks for the help.
Bob

What is the number on the Jack Hook. I think E Body masks are 35 inches tall. Is the mask a tube or rib type. What are the colors of each piece. Post a picture of all pieces and we can tell you what you have and what you need.

I just got out the original jack from my 4/15 SPD Challenger T/A and it has a solid shaft and is 35" high.
I've seen hollow shaft jacks before in E bodies but I don't know if they were used in different years, were from a different supplier and the 2 different styles were used at the same time, or just altogether incorrect?

Looks like I should have boned up on this before I spent my $250.00 for a "restored correct one". It is a hollow one with a 8D on the rivet. Bummer!!

Thanks,
Bob

Every one of my 1970 model year E Bodies has a sold style shaft jack. Only my 1971 cars have the hollow style. The 8D is April 1968, so it is definitely incorrect for your car.
