Since the nosebpiece is mentioned... does anyone know definitively if a Walker 884 roll a car had a nose piece? I have one of those jacks...it has no nose piece and I don’t see any way of attaching one Anyone know?

When they work...I just put em to use When they dont, I restore em Are you implying this is missing a front nose piece?

Ok...so was driving down road in my neigborhood when I saw a garage sale sign...with a larger sign that said TOOLS Well...you know I stopped. It was a century home that looked like a 'clean out' was being done.... I see the attached pics. I appreciate it for what is..was told by the seller it...

Still looking for this piece... Last summer, I found the top plate I was missing... Looking for the part with the arrow...Anyone??

Hi, All...been away for a while but I'm back. I've got a Walker Roll a car 884 floor jack. It's missing the decorative nose piece. Anyone have one that they'd sell???

Some guy (who turned out to be a auto repair shop owner). has an Ammco 1450 brake parts washer..said it worked, just doesn't use it.. So, he...

Hi,gang... Can any one ID this tool I have..? Looks like some thing for blacksmithing, but not sure.. Any help appreciated!

Hi gang...I have the pictured jack.. A Walker Roll-a-car jack. No. 884. I am looking for the top plate as it is missing... If anyone has one they will sell, please PM me. Thank-you!

Gang,Thanks for the support/laughs and I knew that some of the 'therapy' might be like porschedude;s!! I did get it in the garage undetected, but the chance of being found out always exists. What do you mean by cover plate? Am I missing that? As you see it, that's how I got it...

Ok, Guys..Need some help here..Ever since I have been on this forum and learned that "yes, I CAN rebuild my floor jack":lol_hitti....I have become an addict. It started with an old Hein Werner which I tore down, rebuilt and puffed up (like HiBall). Then, along came a old Lincoln...for...
