New D3 bottle jack

For those of you interested....I bought this jack online from Gasweld to replace the scissor jack. $97 delivered.

Specifications
*Capacity: 12 ton *Min height: 230mm *1st Stage: 110mm *2nd stage: 140mm *Screw ext: 80mm *Max height: 550mm *Weight: 12kg

I'm in the process of getting a fitting made to lock the top of the jack into the chassis rail.

It's a big hooer but it easily lifts the car and fits neatly under the rear seat. I had a good look around but only found 1 other jack with the height required and that was a 20 ton that GarryC had purchased.
