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?

i've not seen it - just called up Vauxhall Spares in Dunstable and they have a B-LWB.
are they all standard then, or can i just get a halfords bottle jack?
and no i haven't - was there a nick beardo there as well?

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!

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.
