Thanks everyone - looks like a bottle jack is a possibility but I am concerned that without a locating pin for the chassis it may be unstable. I did buy an adapter off the forum for my trolley jack at home, perhaps that will work….
Thanks again though!

That's the problem I had.
Getting an adapter made so that the weight is on the shoulder of the jack shaft and not the roll pin that holds it in place.

Did you get a steel adapter made in the end??

Not for the Sprinter Jack. Couldn't get one made at the time.
My Dad found a local guy and had one made for the 2t trolley jack. It still needs a bit of fettling as the lower 'stem' diameter is about 0.5mm too big for the jack.
