and what do they look like ?
Looking for that special lady : PM me for coffee & cake
lots...... around xr to XY or fairlane of the same years
look like a small kangaroo jack
Yep, our XL, XM had 'em also 😉
XA-XC had a ratchet type jack that hooked into the slot in the front or rear bumpers. they were 3 piece, the flat base plate, the vertical shaft and the ratchet mechanism. (oh and the handle was the wheel brace from memory). looked like a big elaborate VW one.
If it aint broke,

I'm with desert moose my xy and xw's both had them 69/70
Well I'll ask the question differently..🙂🙂
What Fords didn't have a bumper jack???
My XP had one....
Maybe they all did... as they all had the BIG Bumpers back then....
the bumpers started to get smaller with the XC I think....
and turned into plastic for the XD..... 🙂🙂
How are You Neil??
You certainly want to know a lot 🙂🙂

I think all the Falcons/Fairlanes up to XC had bumper jacks and some late Commodores had similar jacks (not bumper) using the same mechanisim and notched tube. I used a late mechanisim on an early tube to make a highlift jack for my Baja and it worked quite well.
