I have an old Handyman No. 20 jack that is missing the lever that controls raising and lowering. The newer Handyman jacks have a cast "bump" that the lever snaps up against when raising the jack. The "bump" holds the lever in place in the "up" position. See photos. My old jack (on left in photo) doesn't have the "bump" -- see chalk markings on both jacks; the old jack was made that way -- the casting hasn't been modified. I can't figure out what kind of lever I need to control up/down. Does anyone have an old No. 20 to help me get an idea of what I'm missing? Either description or, better yet, photo would be great. If I knew what the lever looked like, I could make one. Thanks.
