    1963 jack article

    Joe Ray has written in the past an article in the Restorer regarding IDing Type 1, 2 and 3 jacks..............my research seems to indicate it may be Vol. 11 #3 but I have no way of downloading info. Tips appreciated. Thank you, Bruce Green

    Harry Ledgerwood wrote a great addendum for the latest 1965 TIM JG 7th ed.on all three C2 jacks and sub-varieties. Each is photographed and displaced. It is the best description of C2 jacks that I've seen. The new color edition will be available for purchase this month.

          Type I Jack Bearing. I've not seen others on originals. LIC used a NICE 603 Bearing. If the judges look, could be a 20% hit on configuration.

            I find that somewhat strange, a bearing wears out, so it is a consumable. Irwin was bought out by RBC owns NICE
            RBC no longer produces a Irwin bearing.

              As we all know GM and other companies had several suppliers for each product they produced! Certainly bearings were one of those. As I have two Type I jacks and the bearings are not stamped. If it were true that all items used in building Corvettes or Corvette Parts ALL C-2 would have only TR bolts for bumper attachment. As we all know TR, WB, RBC and many others were used during the C-2 period.
