Default What size bottle jack?

My truck was missing the factory bottle jack when I bought it. Getting one has been on my to-do list for a while now. Anyone know what size it should be?

Default Bottle Jack Does not work =(

Thank God I never had to use my bottle jack in my 2001 D2 - B/C and went to test it and it would not work. How do you repair these things?

I tried to fill it with hydralic jack fluid and I think I got air in it. Tried to bleed it with no luck. Is there any trick to these things?

I tried to "pull" (extend) the jack apart while filling with fluid and I think I may have busted a seal or something. any suggestions?

The majority of them always failed. Buy a different Jack, non-Rover just make sure it has some way to secure to a mounting place without slipping off.
