Description: This 2 stage jack is cast LAND ROVER on both sides of the central body. Although it does not bear the Shelley name it has all the design features of the brand and looks very similar to the LJ25C in the LJ section. The other significant difference is the 'eared' winder socket. This could often be operated by the starter handle. Photos via Dixon Kenner from the owner of an early Land Rover in Spain. Applicable Vehicles: Early Land Rover Series. Jack Handle Type: As shown in the last 2 photos. However, I cannot be certain if this is the original handle - awaiting further information.

Description: This 3-stage jack is very similar to the LJ31 below and may have been used on some of the same vehicles. TI have refered to it as A212 although this is likely a batch number rather than model number. It is cast SHELLEY down the barrel and A212 in the gusset. In the other gusset it has a vertical arrow above the number 50. The base measures 5.5" by 3.5" and is 5.75" closed height. Photos and data courtesy of Geoff Mackenzie. I have been advised by Ian Jolly that the arrow has been used to indicate Crown Property since the 1550s. It is likely that this jack was used by GPO vehicles who also used this symbol. The LJ31 below was known to be used by GPO vehicles and also carries this symbol. Applicable Vehicles: GPO vehicles Jack Handle Type: Probably two section with a wooden handle. Year Dates Noted: 1949, 1950 Value: Average price paid in 2017 = £9.99 - 1 sale

Description: This is an interesting variation to the LJ11 above, showing the additional BANTAM casting above the LJ11 and on the other side it has the figure 7 added below SHELLEY. I only have details on the two examples shown. This one pre-dates the one above so perhaps the BANTAM casting was dropped soon after 1951 and just became known as the LJ11. It measures 7" closed and 11.5" extended. Photos courtesy of Joe Robbins. Applicable Vehicles:

Description: The jack measures 6.5" retracted and 14.5" extended. It has a 7/16" square drive. The LJ21 is identical to the 7DL, having the name changed to LJ21 in the early 1950s, probably 1952. Applicable Vehicles: The LJ21 first appeared in Healey 100 cars in October 1955. According to the Austin-Healey Concours Originality Guide, the LJ21 is appropriate for the 100 from Car No. 229080 on, for all 100-Six, and for the 3000 up to Car No. 10564 (series BT7) and 10610 (series BN7). Roger Moment, the Healey authority and author of the Originality Guide, has also informed me that he has "...found original cars that were built in February 1956, containing LJ21 jacks dated 55. The LJ21-56 jacks do not seem to have been put into BN2s/100Ms until perhaps late Feb or sometime in March 56." See entries for the Shelley 6 INCH DL, 7DL, 12DL, LJ23, LJ225, LJ225 mod; King Dick B1077 and B1881 for other Healey Jacks. Packaging recently discovered with a NOS jack supplied to the 'aftermarket' showed that the LJ21 was suitable for the following cars: BMC Minor range 1100 - 1300, Bedford Beagle, Bond Equipe, Ford Escort Anglia, Cortina, Thames, Capri, Corsair, Lotus Elan Plus 2, Morgan Plus 8, Reliant Scimitar, Rootes Minx GT, Triumph Herald 1300, GT6, Vauxhall Viva, Victor. That does not necessarily mean that the jack was original equipment in any of those vehicles. Picture of packaging supplied by Andy Pole. Jack Handle Type: The two handle drive pieces are 14" long. The drive socket is 7/16" square section. The metal cross piece (tommy bar) is 12". The second picture shows a rather interesting handle socket. I have never seen this before and believe it may be a DIY modification. Year Dates Noted: 1952, 1953, 1954, 1955, 1956, 1957, 1958, 1959, 1960, 1961 Also undated. Value:

Description: The jack measures 5.5" closed, 11.75" extended and weighs 2.25kg. It has either an L-shaped or saddle jacking point. The LJ22 is almost identical to the earlier 12DL in appearance, except for the numbers. Applicable Vehicles: The LJ22 with the saddle jacking point was supplied with the later AC Cobra. The earlier Shelley 12DL was supplied with some early versions. The saddle jacking point fits the Cobra tubular chassis, whereas the L-shaped jack will not. The two photos with the saddle jacking point are an original unrestored LJ22 and a restored 12DL jack, both from 289 AC Cobras. See the attached pdf file from Dan Case for details. Jack Handle Type: As shown in second photo. Exact dimensions not known. Note the small crossbar hole showing on the unrestored LJ22 jack handle. The 12DL handle will have a broomstick size crossbar hole. (This data is gleaned from research into original unrestored Cobras, including both the 289 and 427. The photos and the data were supplied by Eara Merritt.) Year Dates Noted:

Description: The LJ23 jack measures 6" retracted and takes a 3/4" square section handle. It has either an 'L' shaped jacking point or a saddle. The version in this entry is the saddle for the MGA. Applicable Vehicles: This version with the saddle jacking point was supplied with the early MGA 1500. I do not know which year or chassis number the LJ23 was replaced by the King Dick B1077 in the MGA. The best information I have to date is that up to at least chassis number 18272 had this jack. I would welcome more information from early 1500 owners who have original jacks. See also the Shelley LJ225 for the other (3rd) MGA jack. The final 3 photos are of an unrestored jack with the MGA saddle. This jack is a rarity, having the 55 date tag, the year MGA production commenced. 1003 MGAs came off the production line that year and were equipped with the LJ23. Of those, 594 were exported to the USA where this jack was recently found (March 2017). Photos courtesy of Simon Griffin from Illinois. Other vehicles (still to be identified) will have been supplied with this jack as suggested by dates later than 1955. Jack Handle Type: The drive socket is 3/4" square section. The two handle drive pieces are each 14" long. The metal cross piece (tommy bar) is 12". The handles on the '55' example (possibly MGA) in the final 6 photos are each 21 3/4" long. Information courtesy of Simon Griffin from Illinois. The handle shaft is 13/32 inches square section. The thickest part of the bulbous end is 3/4" square and 1" long. That extends with a hollow collar 5/16" long that slips over the shaft and welded. A 9/32" ball bearing with a spring behind it is peened into the thickest part of the bulbous end. The connecting square section is 5/8" square section and 2.25" long. The handle end is a bulbous section similar in shape to the other end and drilled for the cross bar.

Description: The jack is 2 stage and measures 6" retracted and 14" extended. The base measures 6" x 4" and the saddle 3" x 1.5". The winder drive is 0.75" square. It is cast SHELLEY 51 on one side and LJ24 on the other. Photos and details courtesy of Paul Speight. Applicable Vehicles: Riley 9. Jack Handle Type: 36" folding handle as shown. Unusually, instead of the normal yoke attachment with this type of handle, it has the square 0.75 lug. I am not totally convinced that this is an original handle for this jack, but a very clever, space saving adaption. 6th photo. The Riley 9 has a single piece bar with a wooden cross bar.

Description: The jack is 2-stage and measures 7" retracted, 15.5" extended.

I have also been advised that this jack was also standard issue with military and possibly civilian Bedford TK trucks. Picture 3 shows another casting on the Barrel: SHELLEY 1957. Another version I have seen has the same name and date but rotated 90 degrees anti clockwise. What appears to be an original jack supplied in an export 1952 LandRover Series 1 to Ecuador.

Description: The jack measures 6.25" retracted and 18" extended. It has a 3/4" square drive. Although very similar to the LJ31 in many ways, including the 3-stage screws, for the extra closed height, then 1" extra per stage, you get the four inches extra height of the extended LJ32. First 4 pictures of an early nicely restored 1953 jack courtesy of Joe Robbins. This early date suggests it could have been one of the numerous jack types supplied with early Land Rovers. Packaging recently discovered with a NOS jack supplied to the 'aftermarket' showed that the LJ32 was suitable for the following cars: BMC Maxi, Oxford 1800, 18/85, 3 Litre, Daimler Sovereign, Ford Zephyr, Zodia, Jaguar XJ6, Rootes Rapier, Sceptre, Vauxhall VX40, Ventora, Cresta. That does not necessarily mean that the jack was original equipment in any of those vehicles. Picture of packaging supplied by Andy Pole. Last picture courtesy of Alastair NC shows the jack with a 1974 date stamp. This will be after the Shelley take-over by Tangye. The date stamp ties in with the Land Rover 101FC Army vehicle. Applicable Vehicles: Supplied with the Land Rover 101FC (Army Forward Air Control vehicle) 1972 to 1978 - second to last picture taken from the Landover 101FC parts list. Not sure about early 1960s use of the jack although it may have been supplied with the Bedford Pick-Up/Motor Home/Transit vehicles. Jack Handle Type: As shown in 5th photo. Looks like 36", one piece plus wooden handle. Also an extra long handle shown in the last 2 photos, reported to be original. The drive is 3/4" square; the handle is 5" long; the crank is 9" and the main shaft is 41". Bar diameter is 7/16" Year Dates Noted: 1953, 1954, 1958, 1959, 1960, 1961, 1964, 1974 Value:
