Just bought a brand-new jack from a main dealer to go with my newly-aquired spare wheel.







Well it looks like a Freelander jack from the pictures I have seen... Trevor

Well, who exactly and how much?

Sure 1300kgs is enough?

Some fly dealer shoved a Volvo jack in a LR box?

Sir, would you like a new style alloy wheel a la Volvo?

Came from LR parts to dealer (ordered it Thursday, picked it up Friday), box was sealed until I opened it at home. £22.60 incl VAT. Cheaper than ebay.

It's either a LR jack with the wrong label and not a Volvo jack at all, or Volvo use the same jack and it has the wrong label, or it has been mis-packed in Spain. Whichever way it will be sorted next week - I'd have been less certain of that if I bought it from ebay. Trevor

Don't worry about it, its the correct one, Volvo and ford stickers are all over your freelander if you have a good look, But Just look how flimsy that jack is, I ditched mine for a proper one, my bottle jack takes 6 pumps & 30 seconds to lift the car the landrover one takes ages to wind up via that flimsy handle.

Picture the scene..... down,total darkness on pitch black on an unlit section of the M55 with an off side puncture, 40t trucks skiming you as you wind that tin pot jack up!!!

Thanks, it's all right I never go on the M55!

The small bottle jacks I have seen don't have enough lift Anything I have seen with enough lift weighs about 10 kilos. Trevor

Junior, you have been mixing with those ladies of ill repute in your Blackpool establishments again!

How is the missus Dunroof? Has her Visa come through yet

Not yet, but I get to the post before she does in the mornings. You should have told me that massage parlour comes thro' as Madam Fifi's on the visa statement! Thanks a lot! Last time I go on a bender with you in Blackpool. The old ones are the worse!

Must have been bought by someone who is not a member or has not seen this thread.
May list one myself, when it sells pop down to the dealers and get one
