CRSCRS Posted February 13, 2023 Share Posted February 13, 2023 Hello all, I hope I’ve put this in the right section. I have a large trolley jack that I’m going to start tidying up. Never seen another like it.Would anyone recognise or know the manufacturer ?It’s 9 ft long, 2 ft 6 inch wide and even has its own transport wheels and screw jack to lift each side to fit them as it’s so heavy.Also has slots machined in the frame where you can fit a safety bar so it won’t drop.The only legible writing is 8 ton and a serial number.Have also emailed the Classic British Jack website for help.Maybe ex British Army as lots of green paint underneath. Thanks Chris. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Citroman Posted February 13, 2023 Share Posted February 13, 2023 I have seen one before. In the stubs at the side you can put "road" wheels to move it around over an longer distance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes @Citroman that’s the one, I have both the stub axles and road wheels, I’m just really curious as to it’s make and year approximately Thanks Chris.

ruxy Posted February 13, 2023 Share Posted February 13, 2023 It has the look of Cam Garage Equipment (Radstock). They could have made it in the distant past. I have one of their garage floor cranes/engine lifter - it's all HD if they make it. Their house colour always used to be a pale blue.

CRSCRS Posted February 18, 2023 Author Share Posted February 18, 2023 I have found some stampings today whilst cleaning more of the jack, could this be a army contract number ? The first part is CON 6 / ST / 20434 / CB 21 B second part is REF 40 1349 Hope someone can shed some light on it ? I had a response from CAM equipment too, it’s not one of theirs.
