I bought one of the yellow Ford double cyl jacks from Bontrager's when at
the GMCES rally in Elkhart; paid $30 plus tax.
Noticed there were very few left then.
.
It is rated at 6 tons as I recall and is a bit taller when down, and has the
FORD script on it..
The main difference is that the yellow Ford jack has a quite large 'knob'
at the top which may not fit in all of the jack adapters-to-frame weldments.
I prefer the Northern for its smaller knob [upper adjustable screw out top]
but the Ford is rated at 6 tons whereas the Northern is rated at just 2
tons.
Either work and are handy as heck but there is a slight difference.
Price is the same.
