Will a C3 jack fit in a C2 well? In the spring mounting location that is or in the well itself for that matter. Even some of the new aftermarket C2 jack versions state that jack will not fit in well.

I think a C3 jack will be too long to fit properly.

Look into a Corvair scissor jack. I don’t specifically remember what the difference is but it is slight.

Carried one for years.

Ruined one when the well filled with water. 💩
