Thought I would share this find. Such a cool piece. Autobots(bronco gurus ) did the design of these any different over the course of 66-77 broncos or same design? If anyone has the jack handle/s lmk.

If you're trying to imply that's a stock EB jack, it is not.

Oh is it not? interesting. What make is it then.

And since you probably have a few laying around Justin, why don’t you post up a picture of an accurate one.
Were they exactly the same from 66 to 77?

I was told its a FORD part trying to figure if not Bronco what model is it from. Its period correct based on patina

EB jacks didn't have the round nub at the top. They had a flatter piece with rounded up edges. You may very well have a Ford jack - I've got a couple that look similar that I've picked up at the local junkyard over the years - but the EB jack would be like the one pictured on the right in the photos below.

The jack pic from the OP looks a lot like the one from our ‘64 F-100…was horrible but better than nothing, and not many jack options in the early ‘70s

It's also not a bottle jack.

Such a cool piece.

It's a screw jack. A bottle jack is hydraulic.

Its period correct based on patina

Having bad &/or missing paint doesn't make it "correct" for anything. Patina is often applied intentionally nowadays, but it can be applied to new things, so it doesn't indicate period - only neglect, abuse, or a bored painter. If you want to ID that jack, look for any markings stamped into it. If you want help finding a handle, post a pic showing how the crank attaches to it.

here we go . Does it say "SHIP"!? cant figure what it is.

That looks like Ford's normal flat drive, so most screw jack handles up to ~2000 will fit & work. F-series & Bronco have long straight handles for positioning the jack under the vehicle; others have fold-in-half handles.

@Steve83 thanks, would you be able to tell which Ford Model/year these are from?And what does that stamping say

 

[Steve83]

I can't read anything in your pic - I don't even see where anything is stamped. But no, I probably couldn't tell a specific vehicle from anything stamped in it.

BTW
I have all notifications turned off, so the @ does nothing. I see posts & replies when I browse the forum.

There are actually 3 pics in that. If you hover over there is a right arrow that will appear to skip to the other 2 pic. The 3rd pic has that marking stamped.

That's like trying to see something camouflaged. If you don't want to clean up that area so the color is more even, do a tracing of it.
