Title: 1969 camaro jack assembly
Post by: 69er on March 16, 2007, 03:48:04 AM

I saw a jack assembly listed on ebay that was reported as coming from an early camaro. The
ratchet assembly itself looks different than other jack assemblies that I have seen. Especially
where the ratchet attaches to the bumper. I have seen this type of jack one other time
in someones trunk.

Is this ratchet belong to another type of car, or did GM change the ratchet somewhere
during the year?

I have attached some photos.

Thanks 69er

69er, I think that's a later model GM jack when they started putting a small (1/4" X 1 1/4") vertical hole in the bumpers to hook the jack into (around the time of introduction of the 15mph bumpers). 69's should have an upsidedown "C" shaped saddle to pick up on the bumper under the bumper mount. Someone probably has a good picture. Endura's also had a different saddle bracket than standard.
