Jacking & Lifting Equipment
Jacking and lifting equipment for Land Rover servicing, wheel changes and workshop use, including compact bottle jacks, a low-profile 3 tonne trolley jack and heavy-duty ratchet axle stands.
Start with the vehicle, lifting point and job, then compare rated capacity, closed height, maximum lift, saddle size and base dimensions. The Discovery 2 replacement bottle jack fits the original battery-tray storage position, while the other jacks and stands are selected around working range and support requirements.

Find the right jack or axle stands
Jacking equipment should be selected around the vehicle, lifting point and work being carried out. A compact bottle jack may suit vehicle storage or occasional lifting, while a trolley jack is easier to position for regular workshop use. Axle stands support the vehicle after it has been raised.
| Job | Best place to start | Check before ordering |
|---|---|---|
| Replacing a missing or unreliable Discovery 2 jack | Discovery 2 replacement bottle jack | Confirm the battery-tray storage position, rated capacity and lifting range |
| Compact vehicle or general workshop lifting | Hydraulic bottle jacks in 2, 4 and 6 tonne capacities | Check rated capacity, closed height, maximum height, base size and access beneath the lifting point |
| Regular workshop servicing | 3 tonne low-profile trolley jack | Check minimum entry height, maximum lift, saddle position, overall size and the workshop floor |
| Supporting the vehicle after lifting | 3 tonne ratchet axle stands | Check the rating per stand, working height, support position and ground condition |
Check lifting equipment before ordering
Capacity alone does not confirm that a jack or stand suits the job. The equipment must also fit beneath the lifting point, reach the required height and provide the correct contact with the vehicle. Use the stated dimensions and ratings together.
Rated capacity
Match the stated capacity to the load being raised or supported and check whether an axle-stand rating is stated per stand or per pair.

Minimum and maximum height
Confirm that the jack will fit beneath the lifting point when closed and still provide enough lift for the work being carried out.

Saddle and lifting point
Check the saddle size and shape against the correct vehicle lifting or support point rather than lifting from an unsuitable component.

Ground and vehicle support
Use lifting equipment on firm, level ground. A jack raises the vehicle; correctly rated axle stands must support it before work is carried out underneath.

Bottle jacks, trolley jacks and axle stands
| Equipment | How it is used |
|---|---|
| Bottle jacks | Compact hydraulic lifting for vehicle storage, wheel changes and general workshop jobs where the closed and extended heights suit the lifting point. |
| Trolley jacks | Regular workshop lifting where low entry, controlled positioning and a broad lifting range are more important than compact storage. |
| Axle stands | Supporting a raised vehicle at suitable axle or chassis points before servicing or repair work is carried out. |
