Jack by nickbeardo on Mon Jan 12, 2009 10:40 am
Hi guys,
just joined the world of Frontera owning - i do a lot of shooting and was recommended the SWB as the roof pops off. absolutely loving it.
I've got an S-Reg SWB.
Unfortunatealy it's missing the jack - are they standard across A/B/SWB/LWB's, as my local breakers have a B-LWB that i can grab the jack from?
thanks
Nick

Hi Nick

Welcome aboard!

The standard jack is a bottle type jack, is that was is in the LWB one you saw?

Have you you just left THALES?

Any standard bottle jack should fit in the hole in the left hand boot panel and do the job - but remember that if you lift your suspension at all, a bottle jack probably isn't gonna be much use! :lol:

thanks for the offers - that's really kind of you both.
no worries now though - was chatting to a mechanic friend of mine and he had a spare one laying around.
