Dashurik Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 Hi guys! Planning to remove my back box and also change gasket.Thinking to buy cheap(CE approved) trolley jack from eBay or Halfards.Lifting range up to 360 mm!!!! Is that going to be enough to get under car and do the work or I need a proper professional jack to lift it to desired height? Don't worry I will use axle stands too!! :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilogikal1 Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 If your axle stands are under 360mm it'll be fine, otherwise it won't be, surely? Whether or not your axle stands are high enough to work under the car, I have no idea though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Commander Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 I changed my zorst on my drive, like you're about to. My advice is that higher is better - I probably had about 450mm on my stands. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dicky Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 You need a pair of ramps, reverse up and start. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jollyranchers Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 (edited) You need a pair of ramps, reverse up and start. This , you will struggle otherwise , £100 says you will end up taking off the centre pipe too as the flanges will be rusted together!!!!!
