Collected mine from the post office today - wouldn't go through the letter box yesterday (good job it probably would have cracked the floor tiles!) - Looks great and fits perfectly 30mm. Many thanks for your trouble SM - much appreciated

Just to confirm, I have 30mm ( story of my life...)

Mine arrived today too
Only trouble is I've accidentally mangled the head of the stop bolt on the jack saddle being over enthusiastic with the powerdriver and can't get the bl**dy thing off to fit the magic new jack saddle now Steve N | 21MY Defender | 08MY Discovery 3 (history) | 06MY Discovery 3 (ancient history)

Sorry to hear that Steve.
Going to try mine out on Saturday for wheel change for Tong!!
Just remember the pip on the top won't drag 3 tons of D3 across the drive, the jack must be free to roll as it jacks up. Safe wheel changing

You do your product an injustice, Chris!
10mm of mild steel in shear would drag a D3 around! Even with the EPB on!! Always assuming you had the forearm strength and the jack didn't topple - which of course it would and there would be spilling of blood and tears and grinding of teeth and metal bits
So your advice stands
But I bet the wotsit would survive
