The bottle jack needs to be capable of lifting a loaded vehicle. I'd look for one that has a decent top on it, so that safely catches the axle, and with a decent base for stability. I would also recommend a decent sized block of wood for under it.

Hello Lynn,

Thank you for your reply - I already have the jack stands thank you and a range of different sizes of blocks of wood!

Kind Regards
Lionel
