Barry;  I believe they all use the same jack except sedan delivery and station wagon according to the parts book.  However there are nine or ten variations, probably different mfgs. or assy. plants. Shafts and bases are not interchangeable.  Check your parts book, there are pictures, sorry L lost my camera at last car show.  Correct ones are very hard to find as wrecking yards sold them for scrap years ago as nobody wanted them then. I found mine on Ebay probably a dozen years ago for over $200.  Tom.
