Near thing

Jacking up the D3 when this happened! No injuries just brown trouser job

Stating the bleeding obvious ... looks like your jack wasn't up to it. Laughing

Been jacking up my D3 & D4s for many years and just looking at that jack I wouldn't trust it jacking up my sofa. Laughing

You need a Clarke CTJ300G Strongarm jack, gives great confidence when lifting a D3/D4

But the most important thing is you escaped without injury. Thumbs Up

Well it has lifted the D3 and others for the last 20 years . Guess it just died of old age. Closer look and it’s the weld that failed. New jack is a 3 tonne unit so should see me and D3 out hopefully from natural causes.
