| report on life .......... REPORT ON LAKE AND ELLIOTT JACK. Weight 13 lbs range 9" to 17". This jack Worked satisfactory but was not easily get-at-able when in use at the back of the car, there being no room between the back wing and the petrol t ank. In addition to this, we do not think same would stand up to its test on our cars, the worm wheels not being large enough. This jack is not so compact as the Atlas Jack reported on May 6th 1912 X982 Jack reed. 6/2/12. | ||
