I know you sold your jack. Please explain what is unique about the '62 jack? I have a '62 but not an original jack.

Regards,

Bob

Bob,

My understanding is the main difference is in the shaft you crank to raise and lower the jack. The earlier model jacks used a fine threaded shaft and only the 1962 model used the coarse threads. There may be other differences but that is the main difference.

If you look in the latest NCRS 61 and 62 judging manual, you will find a detailed description of the 62 jack. The threaded shaft is just one difference. It also had a sheet metal base with a large A stamped in it. The base is not cast as in earlier jacks. There are other details as well.
