Small trolley jack for L322?

I bought an "Omega" 2T bottle jack from Scotts auto parts. Cost $132. Am getting a sleeve with flat top made up for it. It goes up to 427mm.
cheers

Thanks Laurie, I hadn't seen that thread.

I just bought a couple of these adapters from the UK - A$24 for the pair posted. One is for my trolley jack, the other I'll counterbore for my ex-P38A jack (I knocked the original banana-shaped end off the P38A jack and put a pad on instead).

They fit perfectly into the sockets under the L322.

Well, I counter-bored a shallow depression in one of them and pushed in (tight fit) a steel Welch plug to give it a solid loading point. (Pics taken but still in camera).

I removed the banana end of a P38A jack and put a pad on instead (I'll elaborate more later :( ) and jack the L322 up. I use a block of wood under the jack to give a bigger footprint on soft ground.

All worked well but the polyurethane bit does distort quite a bit.

I use the highlift mechanical jack and then use the axle stands

What size trolley jack do they use for the armored L322? From the pictures I have seen, it is only a smallish one, with the right shaped head on it, like those poly blocks are.
