Thank you for dishing up these photos, MrChef. I was curious about what SBW indicates. A Google Advanced Search of the terms "Tiger I"+SBW+jack and then Panzer+SBW+jack turned up all sorts of interesting hits, including that there is a "Tiger Floor Jack" company and a book about "Tiger Jack" (a boxer?), but zippo on what SBW meant on the WWII jack. My guess: S B Werke. But what be the "SB"?

That jack is originally designed for a Panther, 20 ton capacity, long extension. (20TL)
Original jacks for a Tiger only had a single grab handle.
But who knows if it was replaced onto a Tiger or not. War, use what you got and make it work.

And that AC/DC song is no way going to be suitable for lyric posting in here I can assure you !!
If those that dont know want to know-they can google it !!
