    Which exhaust jack and some tips please.

    Just been talking to Gordon from Green Oval Experience regrading some of his excellent products and he has told me it's not advised to use a hi-lift jack on any point of an RRS. The body panels curve too much to give any error factor. Best to buy an exhaust jack, but one with an air-compressor fill option.

    Can anyone recommend a quality brand that fits the bill? Also, do I need additional protection between the inflated bag and either the vehicle or the ground?

    What about placement of the exhaust jack, do I try and position it as I would a normal jack under the sanctioned jack placement points for a RRS or can I be more relaxed where I place it?

    Hi,
    you can get a rubber bung from a beer brewing supply place that may fit.
    Have a hole drilled in it, put a bolt/nut with 2 washers either end through the hole.
    Bung it in the other pipe and tighten the nut to expand the rubber to a tight fit.

    cheers

    if the airbag has a one way flap in it you dont need anything exotic, a nerf ball will work surprisingly well.
