Using a trolley jack & axle stands
Hi all
I've just brought a nice SCS jack and stands and was wondering where to place as I do not want to puncture any diff cases or bodywork! Embarassed

I have a 110 SW any advice would be much appreciated. .... Bow down Steve

I use my jack either under the diff case or on the axle tube close the wheel and then leave enough room to get the stand under. 1999 Defender TD5 110

There is the issue that the diffs being off centre so when you jack it up the car will be off balance. 1999 Defender TD5 110
