    RR Classic jacking points

    What are the jacking points and places for putting chassis stands for the RR Classic?

    I presume at least on the bottom of the diff centres for jacking ... any particular spots on the chassis rails?

    (So far for access under my Rangie I just drive it up on ramps, but now I need to get more access).

    Anywhere on the axle for axle jacking or stands, except under the leading arms on the front. Funny thats where every tyre place tries to put the jack, and they look at you like a cretin when you try to tell them. Obviously not under the trailing arms at the back either
    Anywhere on the chassis where its reasonably level.

    <span style="color:blue">i assume you mean with a trolley jack.....


    under the diff housing will work but will not lift the vehicle level....
    have your stands at the same height and place them between the radius arms
    and the brake backing shields at each end of your diff......



    this works for front and rear.....</span>

    Wife came home proud as punch one day (years ago) and proudly announced she had changed a tyre on the rangie (but had to get help putting it in the back).

    I got her to show me where she had put the jack.

    Jacked it up off the tie rod 8O, luckily they must be strong.

    I think she has changed more tyres than me on the defender since.
