Hello to any.
I am going to view a 76 unit on Sat, June 26th, and need the "minimum"
height required to place a bottle jack under the bogie carrier unit, to
jack-up and check for bogie/bushing "slop". Also what would be the
"minimum" rated jack needed to perform this test?
Considering that I will have to scrounge/borrow a bottle jack to do
this test, I do understand that the "Min" I ask for may be shy of what
you may usually use when working on the rear assemblies for safe
prolonged work

Regards,
Gil..
 
a 3 ton bottle jack is fine
