EQUIPMENT DESCRIPTION: REPLACEMENT AND REPRODUCTION JACKS FOR THE RESTORATION AND MAINTENANCE OF VINTAGE BRITISH CARS. THE INNER THREADED SHAFT IS SWAGED (MUSHROOMED OUT BY A DROP PUNCH) WHICH LIMITS THE TRAVEL OF THE SHAFT IN ITS THREADS AND HOUSING. ON SOME JACKS, INSUFFICIENT FOURCE WAS USED TO SWAGE THE SHAFT END ALLOWING THE SHAFT TO COMPLETELY UNSCREW FROM THE HOUSING.
What the owner should do?
If you read about a recall that you think may affect your car, you should make immediate contact with a dealer or workshop that’s been officially authorised to perform repairs on behalf of the manufacturer and ask for the details.
If you wish to know more about eventual problems of a specific car (e.g. real mileage, potential traffic accidents damages, odometer rollback, repairs, etc.), then we suggest going to HPI-Check.
