if you can't find one,
and ordinary vanagon jack will work if you are careful.
even better, just extend the nose of it by an inch by welding a piece on
solidly......then when you insert it all the way, it can't hit the
fiberglass.
I just used a regular jack on a van with fiberglass on the sides the other
day. . Seemed like it just barely touched the f-glass when seated well in.
or use a regular one until you can find the right kind.
hey ! maybe the insurance will pay for a new one, if they are available.
