Replacement Jack - possible Group Buy

[~Rich~]

Hi all,
As most of you will know the standard L/R scissor jack is plain dangerous.

On the Disco3.UK forum many in the UK have found these Merc Sprinter van jacks to be perfect for our cars.
It extends from 260mm to 570mm - more than enough.

Now the price:
Approx $91 each - shipped to Sydney.
This of course can change due to currency exchange rates until the time of purchase.
Local Sydney pick up would be ok.
Additional postage at buyers cost.

For this price we would need 15 buyers.
He does not seem interested in shipping single jacks so hence the group buy.

Please show expressions of interest at this stage only.
Cheers Rich

I would be interested but I would one that can be laid down - so I would need to find that information out before committing.

Cheers

[sheerluck]

I've been looking at these myself, will happily put my name down.

Edit: That's a little bit of an error on the part of the seller, I'll pass now thanks.

[TerryO]

Like Garry if this jack can be stored on its side then I'd be in for one (maybe two) as well.

[SBD4]

Yes Please Rich!

[jon3950]

Put me down for one, possibly two.

Cheers,
Job

[Graeme]

I'll put my name down for 2 thanks! I'll get hold of them one way or another.

Edit: none for me now thanks.

[eddomak]

Edited after Price Revision - Sorry I probably don't use it enough to justify the higher price. I'm out.

Thanks for looking out for us!

[Tombie]

I'm in for 2

[WhiteD3]

One for me please.

[~Rich~]

Ok the guy Vaughan emailed me a price, he forgot to add in the jack price!
That was only the shipping price, the correct total price per unit is $91.
( Still can change due to currency exchange rate but should not be too much of a change)

Sorry for his slip up guys.
Anyway edit your posts as required.

Rich

[Graeme]

Import duties will be applicable too in that case making them close to double the original price so I'll withdraw my interest. I think jacking the chassis is the wrong principle although I haven't done anything about a portable way to jack the wishbones yet.

[~Rich~]

Maybe we need to keep it down to under $1000 total to stop the import duty.
Possibly only 10 units, I'll get another quote.

[ozetim]

Thanks. I'll take one.

[TerryO]

I guess the real consideration is if these jacks are a good option for a disco then how much are they to buy here in comparison to the revised price Rich can get them for?

If Rich can get them for substantially less then they are still a good buy.

[~Rich~]

I haven't been able to source them locally as yet, please try!

[SBD4]

Maybe we need to keep it down to under $1000 total to stop the import duty.
Possibly only 10 units, I'll get another quote.

Doesn't the import duty/GST only apply to the value of the goods only? Based on what you originally posted the actual jack price is about $36 (freight $55 IIRC). If that is the case then 27 jacks could be accommodated with in the $1000 GST threshold. If I'm right then the additional quantity beyond 10 could be ordered if need be....

[simoncs]

Hi I would be keen for one please, if the price stays under the $100 mark.

Thanks

The $1000 threshold is for the value of the goods. If the goods value exceeds $1000 then GST and Duty is applied to the value of the goods and the shipping. So yes, 27 jacks it is!

It may be worth looking at an alternative freight type too. If no-one is in a rush, then sea freight may work out 50%+ cheaper, just you'd have to wait a month.

Thanks Rich, please put me down for 2 also!

I rang a mate to find out the price of the jack from Mercedes, $740 RRP, $680 Trade:eek:

[Barn.555]

Put me down for one as well. Just had major stuff around with OEM jack when out bush last week , a mate saved the day with a couple of bottle jacks.

[TerryO]

Looks like your going to have way more than ten requests Rich. ...:eek:

Might be a case of you get ten or how ever many it is to keep it below $1000 and the GSt threshold and another member orders another batch if and as required then Customs won't jump on you for order splitting the second batch.

Just trying to think outside the square.

[mox]

Overall I have found screw type jacks more resistant to rough treatment as often occurs with use in 4WD applications than hydraulic ones. they will also work equally well sideways or upside down, which hydraulic jacks will not. Recently amongst items purchased in auction lot, I acquired two similar sized short automotive screw jacks which appear well made. Have been told they are types used in Toyotas. I would much prefer them over the hydraulic ones illustrated.

For those who think that advocating something from Toyota is sacrilege on a Land Rover forum, remember that the Toyotas they came from have almost certainly died.

Hope this helps someone.

If the group buy is still on then I will be in for one too.

[alpick]

Count me in as well please

good stuff!

yep..me too pls...depending on freight to melbourne.

I am assuming you could use a good quality rock slider to lift a wheel as well with one of these

I'm in depending on freight to Adelaide

[~Rich~]

Perhaps as Terry mentioned about GST duty it would be better to purchase these by say 2 people, 1 in Sydney, 1 in Melbourne. Seems like most interested parties are in these capital cities.

Apart from using the seller who else on the forum has used a UK shipping agent?

I have. I used these people International Shipping - Air Freight, Sea Freight. Cargo from China, USA, Taiwan and Hong Kong (http://www.comparecargorates.com/index.php) to ship a load of body panels and bulky parts for my D3 by sea.

If there's enough interest, I'm happy to organise a Brisbane/Qld group buy if it makes it easier.

[~Rich~]

Ok I've added a Poll so we can follow how many in each region want one or more units.

Yes Sheerluck you may be looking after Qld - thanks!

[101RRS]

Ok I've added a Poll so we can follow how many in each region want one or more units.

Hmmm as usual the ACT has been left off - we are not in NSW though we fund half their school budget and health budget (well maybe a slight exaggeration) :p.

Well I thought that shipping from Sydney to Canberra would not be that much.
I only had space for 10 options and needed space for those who wanted 2 units - sorry Gary (and Graeme) ;)

PLEASE ONLY ENTER YOUR OWN ORDER NUMBERS IN THE POLL.

[sniegy]

I would be interested but I would one that can be laid down - so I would need to find that information out before committing.

Gary,
You don't need to get one that lays down!,
You just use the little opening on the right hand side, string the new jack up to the panel inside & fill with foam-a-fill !
Insulated& stored in a nice easy to get to place.

Without removing the panel and getting a metal base plate welded in I don't think the inner panel even filled with foam will carry the weight of the jack that may weigh around 10kg = particularly over rough ground.

I am looking to store it under the rear seats.

I have confirmed elsewhere and just checked my 101 jack that falls over all the time that these type of jacks do not like being on their sides.

[101RRS]

Oops - double post got distracted buying some angel light DRLs for my RRS

[AnD3rew]

There is a good picture of it neatly stored upright in the links on the original post, if that doesn't work, I will just cable tie it to the cargo barrier.

I'll be in Canberra a few times in the coming months, so am happy to courier them down from Sydney if the timing works. Can drop in to Goulburn on the way through too.

[thekernel]

One for me also - provided freight to perth is reasonable.

Would also be interested in a washer if anyone can make up a batch.

Thanks Rich.

[~Rich~]

Well looking at the numbers so far:

I'm thinking of 3 separate shipments,
1 to NSW - 10 units at this stage
1 to QLD - 8 units " " "
1 to STH AUS - 8 units " " "

The Sth Aus ones will be forwarded onto both WA & VIC addresses.

I'd look after the NSW ones, we would need a volunteer from the other 2 states to look after both the payment(s) and distribution.

I'll contact the supplier for another quote on the above shipments.

Thoughts?

[sheerluck]

I'm still ok to do the QLD batch, Rich.

And I'll most likely have one myself once I know what the final freight price will be.

[herrBlick]

Pit me down for one as well , looks great

[WhiteD3]

On second thoughts, not for me please. Have a perfectly good (If a bit big) bottle jack hiding under the rear seats as it is.


One for me please.

[~Rich~]

Ok noted White D3.

Well I have been busy in correspondence with the supplier so here is an update:

I got a quote on the 3 shipments.
Sydney shipment would work out at $106 ea
Brisbane $128 ea
Adelaide $120 ea

The issue is the same flat shipping rate whether it be 12, 9 or 10 units.

I then asked if he could send 25 units to Sydney for the flat shipping rate, the answer was no as they would need to be on a pallet. :(
(25 units was the number I could order to keep under the $1000 import duty limit)

I've emailed him once again to find out how many units he could ship for the flat rate he quoted on before. We may need to stick with this number as an order and possibly another person would order another lot.

The jack and tools weigh 5kg approx each.

Cheers Rich

[Gords]

Thanks Rich,

Let me know when & how I can fix you up for my 2... The sooner I get rid of the stock jack the better!!!

No longer will I be forced to keep a tub of grease next to the jack so that I can repack it with grease every 5 seconds to keep it working... Even then it barely turns... Rant over :angel:

Happy to also help with logistics from Brissie!

[MelbD3]

Count me in for two jacks please. Delivered to Melbourne.

I would also be interested in purchasing the adaptor that fits the top of the jack, which engages the holes in the chassis.

Many thanks

[VK3GJM]

Hi All,

I may be missing something here, but the minimum reach could be an issue in the event of a flat tyre. You cannot lock the suspension in extra height mode, therefore the access jack point is less that 150mm from ground level when you have a flat.

Given that most of these jacks have a starting reach from 210-260, I would need the original scissor jack to give me clearance in order to place a jack with a starting clearance of 260 mm.

I do agree that the OEM jack is not very stable. I am struggling with the type of jack to take to Cape York, I am leaning towards the hi-lift now that I have all my bar work fitted.:unsure:

Regards

Gerald

[jonesy63]

Gerald - I helped a mate with a flat STT and ran into this situation.. the makeshift solution was to drive the wheel with the flat tyre up onto the spare to give enough clearance - then put the bottle jack under it. :angel:

[VK3GJM]

Hi Jonesy,

A good bush mechanic always finds a way. As with most things there are pros and cons.

I wish LR would provide a jacking option where it locks the EAS into the extended off-road position, this would make access and clearance much easier.

My previous V10 Touareg offered this jacking mode with success. Each to there own I guess.

Just wanted to make people aware another jack does not mean your crappy OEM jack issue is resolved, especially for those that are not mechanically inclined.

However, the product on offer is the best I have seen in terms of height and reach and bang for your buck.

Regards

Gerald

[SBD4]

will the EAS self level to provide clearance?

[elsey]

The Quaddro jack is to be released later this year and would be the ideal replacement for the Land Rover OE jack (see link below).

Quaddro Technologies - WORLD'S SAFEST 4x4 Off-Road Vehicle Recovery Mechanism. (http://www.quaddrotech.com/index.html)

It would be difficult to get a bottle jack under a vehicle with a flat tyre unless you use the OE jack in conjunction with the bottle jack or, as jonsey63 says, get the wheel with the flat up onto something to provide enough clearance to get the bottle jack under the vehicle.

At the moment I carry a hydraulic bottle jack as well as the L R OE jack but will consider the Quaddro when they become available.

Lou...

[~Rich~]

Update:
The supplier Vaughan has not been replying to any more emails unfortunately. Perhaps he is away or he is no longer interested on supplying us the jacks.
I have sent 3 unanswered emails since the last reply from him and will try again next week.

I've been sending this mob e-mails for about two years now ... maybe 2013 will be the year that they finally get them into the marketplace !!!!
Fingers crossed :)

[discojools]

I would be very interested in the Quaddro jack. Have looked at their website and it looks like it will come on to the market this year. It has a minimum lift height of 18cm which should be ok.

Jools.

[ozetim]

Thanks, however I'll cancel my order and wait for the quaddro. Don't really fancy driving over an expensive alloy to get clearance.

[~Rich~]

Well I've got to say I'm very disappointed with Vaughan who is selling the jacks in England on eBay.

No more responses at all from him - so it looks like we have a "Fail" with this endeavour of a group buy. Sorry to get everybody's hope up.

Cheers Rich

BTW it now states on the eBay item page that he does not ship to Australia :( grrrr.

[SBD4]

Thanks for your efforts Rich.

Thanks ~Rich~ for having a go.

I think I will be getting one of those exhaust balloon bag jacks, should be just the thing for sand/mud and just maybe I can store under middle seats.

Hi Rich,
Thanks for your efforts.

Richard

[LGM]

Many thanks for having a red hot go!

[Gords]

Thanks anyway Rich,

I might try and find a 2 stage bottle jack that suits- you mentioned that the clearance on these jacks is 260mm to 570mm which is more than enough, does anyone know that the actual minimum / maximum needs to be? I have found a few that come close but not sure where the shortfall will be. Obviously assuming that you put the vehicle into offroad mode and I've got the GOE rods so always an option to go a bit higher if the minimum height is not quite low enough.

Cheers!

Yesterday I was reading these threads about Jack alternatives for the D3. Today I had to change a wheel for the first time using the LR scissor jack.

It worked. Just. It got really hard at one point but I put an extra bit of oomph in and got the necessary height to change the wheel. However it just wouldn't. lower after that. Bent the extension rod and needed to get a wrench onto the spindle end just to turn it. Finally got it down and saw that the thread is now completely jiggered.

I need a new jack to carry in the car now. If the Merc Sprinter is not an option, if the Two stage bottle jack above is too bulky to carry in the car, if the great looking scissor jack from South Africa is not yet in production then what do forum members suggest I get? I need something.

Would I be best placed with a exhaust jack?. I am 98% urban driving and 2% off road. No sand or snow. But likely gravel and mud maybe the Vic Hich country in a few months. Don't like the feeling of having no jack.

[SBD4]

I guess the Merc Sprinter jack is still an option if you are willing to go ahead and buy it yourself.

Edit: nope they don't ship to Australia

[SBD4]

What do we think about this:

4 Ton Telescopic High Lift Bottle Jack with 345mm Stroke (http://www.sgs-engineering.com/hydraulic-jacks/bottle-jacks/tbj4-4-ton-telescopic-bottle-jack)

I also like what this company does from a safety perspective:

[d3viate]

Something I am missing ?
My 4 tonne bottle jack fits under when car on bumpstops and raise way over height even with big wheels, never fully extended it because it gets to a dangerous height.
I bought this big mother because of the weight when fully loaded and in case I wanted to lift one end of the car out bush.
It is not too heavy to put under the rear with one hand and I have steel plates and pins in my wrists and arthritis in the shoulders so Im no strong arm.
It has been transported over 100k kms laying on its side and does not leak.
It was a cheapy from an Auto shop cheaper than these here for a "group buy".
Anybody still using the jack that came with the car is risking damage to you and or the car. Its a piece of...............

[~Rich~]

Looking at the links above and doing some more searching myself it seems that most are bigger & or heavier than the eBay one. I'm still keen to get one of these.

Now some more good news:
A DISCO3.CO.UK member Andy has offered to be a transfer agent for us!
He has been given the approx numbers and will get some quotes for us.
See what comes out of this.

Cheers Rich

[WhiteD3]

This is an old thread but still relevant. I still have the same jack and attachment....work fine with the D4 but not used in anger yet. Checked the jack last weekend and after 5 years of lying down there's no leaks.
