Thanks to all who responded.
I ended up with a single stroke bottle jack (214mm with 145mm stroke).
I put the car in normal height mode, car off, key removed, door left open. Positioned the jack under the arm. Wheel came up as expected but the air suspension did adjust in the process. I was under the assumption that air suspension never adjusted when door was open, well maybe not. That meant the jack was stuck in position after lowering and car needed to be started to relevel suspension and allow jack removal. Not exactly what I expected. No big drama and definitely is safer than the scissor.
Didn't Land Rover replace the scissor jack with a pump up jack?
I thought I read somewhere that they did. Or, am I wrong (as usual).

I like the idea of a scissor jack as it’s low enough so to lift the wheel instead the body. But the LR supplied version is not up to spec unless in perfect conditions.
Does anyone have a recommendation for an after market stronger scissor jack, based on experience? There’s plenty of cheapies out there that are similar or maybe worse quality than LR version.

Will the scissor jack fit under the arm ??
Dont forget, if you are getting a Omega bottle jack you can get an adaptor so they locate into the chassis also @ Discovery 18" wheels | Land rover 18" rims | Tuffant
