The originals were pretty rusty, one was bent and they were just plain ugly. Replaced all with BAL 24028 LoPro scissor jacks. A bit beefier and lower profile. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002XLL8FK/

A pita grinding old tack welds and drilling 16 new 5/16 holes in frame, but they look much better and probably a good bit stronger than originals.





I wish I had a lift. Would make it a lot easier than rolling around a gravel driveway. Looks like my frame and axle could use a new coat of paint too. Should have paid for that undercoating!! Wink
