Replacing the scissor jack

Finally got rid of the p.o.s LR scissor jack in favour of a Titan 5t bottle jack.

I then hacked away at the jack holder to make the bottle jack fit, and also got a small block of wood to help jack up the car.

It all fits quite nicely in the jack space Smile

Since I removed the tow hitch, any ideas on how to use the opposite space more efficiently? --

Doug, I got this from the local hardware store.

It's a local product, not sure you'll find this outside of ZA.

It's not a 2-stage one, but it works well enough on the suspension arm, and I also have the block of wood to jack on the chassis. --
