i think it would be called a crank, and you should be able to get one from a wrecker, it would suit any jack. otherwise just make one......

I just "borrowed" the windy thing from the wife's laser, it fits fine. my mav didn't come with them. Tried to get one at pick-a-part but they didn't have any. will try a wrecker sooner or later.

with all these people making there own gear, why can no one make a crank handle?
if you do, it would help if it was a little bit longer, say adjustable

Good luck finding one at a wrecker - I tried about 10 and they all said 'like rocking horse shit'. God knows where they have all ended up
I also tried Nissan and they wanted 3 arms and 4 legs for one so I just gave up!
