    trolley jacking points

    Changing the wheels on the Rangie is time consuming with just the bottle jack, so I got a 2.5T trolley jack to make the lifting part much quicker.

    Placing the round head of the jack under the diff housing is all good but only lifts the left side of the car. Where is the safest part to lift the right side of the car, or doesn't it matter as long as it is along the diff? I'd like to keep the part of the diff under the air springs clear as this is where the axle stands go.

    Ta, Paul.

    Anywhere along the axle tube is fine Paul, as long as you don't have 1200kg in the back of the vehicle at the time....
