Huckerby}29.3.39. PORTABLE HYDRAULIC JACKS. We want another six of these, three with 13 5/8" lift and three with 15" lift. They must all have the latest forked bracket for which a die can now be sunk. It is preferable that the bracket should be fitted by Sessions as it is put on before the foot is pinned in position. Will you order these jacks as we are in need of them for cars already built which have no jacks. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Gry.{Shadwell Grylls} | ||
