Hello again!
My coach did not come with a jack and I would like to have one for roadside conditions. Does anyone have a spare they would like to sell or can you point me in the right direction to buy an aftermarket with the correct specs? Hook etc. would be a bonus...
Thanks,
Shawn

I have one of those around somewhere. I have never used it and would have to get out a book to figure how.
A better choice would be a 2 stage bottle jack and a jack hook. They are available several places but I would suggest that you talk to Jim K. at Applied GMC about the different types available. He also has several of them on his web site.

Thanks Harry,
I actually just used the specs and found an equivalent at princess auto for a reasonable price. Think I may have to bite the bullet and order the hook from Jim K though. Pricey sucker that one...

The link you provided goes to a seller called CTD Sales LLC of Kansas City.
I just bought two jacks from them based on the link below. They sent *one*
in a medium flat rate box which isn’t even large enough to hold two. I got
no response to a message, and filed a case with eBay. They filed a counter
case even after I provided photos, and eBay “ruled” in their favor, because
a box was indeed delivered. I’m now trying to figure out their appeal
process, which dead-ends on both the eBay app and web site.
There are other sellers of these jacks. Do not buy from these worthless
SOBs. Don’t follow the link—do a search and choose a different seller.
Now, I have one jack that cost me 80 bucks instead of the 40 advertised,
and have to buy another one to get my pair.
