Re Michelin Jack - X.391. Wor.{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} Na{Mr Nadin}3/IB9713. With reference to Mr Haldenby's report re the above subject, will he tell us if the Michelin jack could be used under our Colonial cars if it were made, say, 2" higher. This would give an extra 4" when fully extended. The point is, would it be short enough to go under the front axle if made longer? Your immediate attention would oblige.
