What do people use as a base for their bottle Jack? As noted before, with the extending suspension, it often reaches a bit of an angle and I have to get the axle stands out for peace of mind. D4.5 Facelift, Lazer ST4, Prospeed underbody and rack, IID BT, Compomotive/BFG KO2, Series MFlaps, RAI, Dog Gd+XBB, Alive Tuned, T-Max/YellowTop, RemoteFBH, GlassesMod, WheelWinchMod, Jack Mod, LED Mods, Seized Crank Mod....

don't know if it's an overkill
Did you get one? Back in stock. Will it fit under the wishbone? Visitor from fullfatrr.com

It won't fit under the wishbone unless you dig an hole for it  , 2 ton is more than adequate for under the wishbone, Robbie uses one that is miniature that fits under the wishbone and made by SGS  It can when others can't,
It will when others won't,
It goes where others don't.

I've seen references on here to an adapter sold through the site shop ... Link I found doesn't work so suspect no longer sold. Does anyone have a picture before I start making one from scratch ? .
