So I needed to fit my new wheels end of last week only to find my beloved son had messed with toy trolley jack and broke it (technically drained it of fluid and lost the plug..!)

Don't people say the Mercedes Sprinter bottle jack is perfect for the L322?

This is what I've used for my D3 and works a treat (not sure I can post direct link to Machine Mart website?)....

Sounds like my JD inspired purchase may be OK
What is one of those ? One of the BMW hockey pucks ? |

The Clarke 3 Tonne professional jack and two pairs of 6 tonne axle stands works for me. being a safety consultant, I err on the side of caution !! Tony

I wanted to get the car up high to do the suspension. 520mm lift is barely enough on the rear of the truck, so i bought a high lift Weber second hand.

Mine arrived - seems OK, but the release valve is separate from the handle, so you can't just twist to drop - but I can't complain for £58.
