Can anyone tell me if the 70 bumper jack had a long or short sleeve on it that holds the jack handle to the mast of the jack stand, while secured in the trunk? I have seen two types for sale out there and want to get the correct one. One looks like it is about 8 inches long, the other one looks like it is about 20 inches long.

Hi Mitch,

Sorry I'm not sure about the correct length, but when I was going to order one from Ground-Up, they told me I could use a section of bicycle tube for the sleeve. It worked great. I think it looks the same, and its cheaper.
Nobody will be able to see it under the spare tire anyhow. :)

Have a good day!
