Guest KeithElwell Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 Would like to buy a 1936 Buick tire jack Assembly and handle.In the meantime I am looking for someone to post pictures of the correct jack, photos with measuring tape shown for size of jack would be most helpful.

Jolly_John Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 Hi, Keith. By chance, is a picture of this jack shown in the "Tire Changing" section of the 1936 Buick owner's manual? I know the 1938 Buick jack is shown in the '38 owner's manual. Just a thought. John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest KeithElwell Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 Good thought. I will check and see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest KeithElwell Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 Well turns out I can't get to my owners manual for several weeks to check if a jack is shown. Doesn't any 36 owner out there have an original jack they could photograph and post photos? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pont35cpe Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 Keith, my shop manual shows a picture of the jack. Looks similar to Ford pick-up bottle jacks, main difference is it has what they call a spur or lug extending upwards from the head. It states that the spur/lug acts as a stop when the jack is slid under either the front A-arm or the rear leaf spring. Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
copperjohn Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 I have a '36 Buick with the jack and I'll get it out and post a photo for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest KeithElwell Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 Thanks Tom. I thought I had been thru my service manual already and did not find the jack. I'll check it again. I do have that manual handy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom_S Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 Here are a couple of photos of the one my grandfather had in his 36 Buick. I can only assume it was original, but could have been replaced by my Grandfather at some time.Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
