Is jury-rigged the same as jerry-rigged?

Jury-rigged means something was assembled quickly with the materials on hand. Jerry-built means it was cheaply or poorly built. Jerry-rigged is a variant of jury-rigged, and it may have been influenced by jerry-built.

Is it okay to say jerry-rigged?

As we wrote in a 2008 post, standard dictionaries now accept “jerry-rigged” as a legitimate usage. Etymologically, they say, it's a mash-up of two earlier terms: “jury-rigged” (improvised or makeshift) and “jerry-built” (badly done).
