  View original topic: Thing jack mounting brackets for storage in front apron
Haupt Strasse Motors Wed May 21, 2008 10:07 am

Hi,
I seem to be missing one of my mounting brackets to secure the jack
in its correct location, can any one email me a picture of an unmolested
original?
Thanks,
Bill Haupt & soon to be a lot less molested 181

Hi,
Thanks for you pictures of the jackspur and re-inforcement. I meant the
brackets in the front apron where the jack is stored when not in use. I
would love to get a picture of that area.
Many Thanks,
Bill

This picture comes from a military Type 181.
Maybe it will help you.

Hi Stan,
Thank you for the Cool pictures of your military Thing, unfortunatly your
jack is a different shape to my Mexican built US export 73 model.
I loved the hatchet above the jack!
Thanks,
Bill
