Reply With QuoteIm guessing the original cap on the jack was screwed on????
If so I will look into getting the Blackwoods version.I will get my boy to make a cap on his lathe,no reason he couldnt tap it to suit.

You are welcome. I certainly feel much better knowing I have a jack which is actually capable of safely and reliably raising the vehicle.

You will see this advertised on Amazon by a number of sellers inc. one called Kev's.. don't.. when you go thru the process it rejects Oz shipping.. so use this link to the seller which is the Amazon international shipping.. I think it comes from same seller except Amazon assists with the shipping. Amazon.com: Omega 10025B Black Hydraulic Bottle Jack - 2 Ton Capacity: Automotive

SupporterThis is a bottle jack.. yep.. telescopic as all bottle jacks are.. the model numbers confusing.. BTS2000 seems to be the model no. in Blackwoods.. anyway I range the Oz distributor and he confirmed BTS200 and 10025B are the same thing.

SupporterCould a Discovery Series 2 jack with a custom made top be used ?
Swaggie
Probably won't go low enough.
What about a holden jack,probably have to modify the top though.
The old screw type that was very common.

SubscriberHere is a pic of the bst2000
The site referenced distinguishes between telescopic and Inline bottle jacks
This one is a 2 stage jack
TELESCOPIC HYDRAULIC BOTTLE JACKS
Check specs and see if the same. Not that matters if you are happy with it and it does the job

Heads up.
The current Kinchrome cattledog(fathers day sale,ENDS THIS SUNDAY) has a 10tonne squat hydraulic jack for $109.95.Min height is 190mm which is what we are chasing I believe.
Can anybody confirm if this jack is "squat" enough for the D4,I have one on hold awaiting confirmation.Dealer says you wont buy a shorter hydraulic jack.
See your local Kinchrome dealer.
I MAY be able to trick my boy into making a replacement head on his lathe to suit the factory jack points.He isnt home often,will see if he wants to make a batch whilst making me one as a group buy.
