Which Jack


Recommended Posts

Can anyone tell me what dimensions I need to look for in a bottle jack please for a Defender 90.

I have seen one on Land Rover parts but the genuine part is £100 :blink:

There are some Sealy jacks in the Just off base website for £18 but I not sure of the sizes or what capacity I need.

I'll try not to post more than 2 newbie questions a day. Honest.

We have a long Hi-Lift and a small bottle jack, Ralph is right, at least 2 tonne.

i'd get one from a recognised shop (machine mart etc) as you can take it back if it goes wrong, they all have at least a years warranty, and you should get a good deal on one this time of year...

If your getting a bottle jack, your going to need a 2 stage jack.

As has been said already, get a genuine parts one second hand from somewhere like a Land Rover autojumble, or a local LR garage.

I picked up a couple from my garage for the grand total of nowt. :)

If you end up getting a Hi-Lift jack, please remember they are as deadly as they are useful, and exercise a lot of caution when using it.
