"Hydraulic jack" only 20 bucks :Moon: Eff you dude.

I think I have 3 or 4 of these OEM jacks for Squares. They kinda suck. In fact last time I went to the scrap yard, I scraped one of them. I guess I keep them in the trucks I have just because its an oddity to see the OEM jacks now days. THey don't work worth a damn. Maybe I should lube them up and see if I can get them to work properly. Never know, roadside, it might come in handy someday.

I still have the original one fastened to the fender, to be honest it does not look like its ever been out. It looks just like the jack I had in the 07.

I've got 2 in trucks that don't look like they ever been removed. I tried using one of the loose ones on that last truck I scrapped, when I was at the shop without a jack to air up my trailer tire that had broke the bead and needed jacked up. I'm telling you what, unless it was just dry and not been lubed, those jacks realy suck bad and I hope I never need to use one. But, if its all you got on the side of the road broke down, I guess you don't have a choice. :shitsweak:

So WTH Retro??? When are you getting a Square??? There has got to be something you can live with in your budget??? Maybe its being stuck on Short bed huh?? I know those are a bit more rare and people think they are gold. And they aren't. They're just the same as a long bed with a 1.5 feet cut off the back. Maybe you do need to consider long bed. You bring more groceries home with a long bed? And carry more parts home from Budget Wrench. I think you'd get a better condition truck for less money if you considered long bed too. Or be willing travel a bit. I know at least a few of us here have good judgement. We could find something local to us, check it out for you, take good pics and email them to you for review. If you decide you want it maybe someone can meet you half way to pick it up. A few of us have trailers or towbars. Its time to think outside the box dude. Going on a month now and still no square !!! :crazy:
