Hyspeedz Posted January 30, 2011 Report Share Posted January 30, 2011 My truck does not have the 4 foot jack for releasing the spare tire or operating the bottle jack. I have what looks like the handle, the bottle jack, and the lug nut wrench. If you could take a picture of yours and send it to me, I would appreciate it. I'm going to try to fab one up. Send image to djfelter@me.com Thanks! Hyspeedz Quote Link to comment
Hyspeedz Posted January 31, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 31, 2011 I haven't had any luck with my first post. So, here is a picture of what I am looking for. Even if you could only tell me the dimensions of your jack handle, i.e., length and the diameter of the tee end. There's a drawing on the website below. I need information about object #99613. Many thanks! http://www.nissanpartszone.com/components/1984-nissan-720-pickup_tool-kit-995-347.html Quote Link to comment
ggzilla Posted January 31, 2011 Report Share Posted January 31, 2011 It's just a short little handle and a short little shaft. The long one for the spare tire is a different part. Quote Link to comment
Hyspeedz Posted January 31, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 31, 2011 OK. I thought it was about 4' long. My truck is missing one, and I'm not near any salvage yards. Thinking I'll have to fab something to get to my spare tire. I made a short jack handle but I need to to get to the spare tire. Thanks for your comment. Quote Link to comment
Sealik Posted January 31, 2011 Report Share Posted January 31, 2011 It's just a short little handle and a short little shaft. The long one for the spare tire is a different part. Actually....it's 33.5 inches long. Slips through a hole above the license plate to reach the frame. Quote Link to comment
izzo Posted January 31, 2011 Report Share Posted January 31, 2011 I just reached in there with a socket on mine, and spun it around, took a while, but got the spare tire out (it was old and shitty anyways) then tossed it. Weight reduction! Quote Link to comment

Weight reduction! Ya....not a good spot for the spare anyways. The tire holds crud and moisture....frame can't breath......rust Quote Link to comment
datsunaholic Posted January 31, 2011 Report Share Posted January 31, 2011 It's just a short little handle and a short little shaft. The long one for the spare tire is a different part. That's not true. The jack handle and the spare tire lowering rod are the same part. There aren't separate ones. The "Shepards hook" end fits in the lowering socket on the spare tire carrier, and it also hooks in the jack's driveshaft. It's totally different than the ones used on Datsun cars (which used a scissor jack) Quote Link to comment
bananahamuck Posted January 31, 2011 Report Share Posted January 31, 2011 Pictured are two different styles if you have one round hole in jack it`s the hook one but since your truck is pretty new ...it`s probably the one that just has dowel through end.I dont have pictures but what we did was go to back junkyard and get a ordinary one and weld a 3/8 ratchet extension on the end ( kinda like picture shows ). At harbor freight tools you can get really long extensions in a pack of three for like 5 bucks. dont know if this helps any but thats what we did...... Quote Link to comment
