Has anyone found a suitable jack for a locost. I know some like the mini's mount in a hole and it wouldnt be too hard to drill a few holes in the underside of the chassis for the jack to mount.

Would be useful to have a compact jack onboard in case of punctures etc. Just wondered if anyone is using a certain one?

Thanks

I got one from the scrapyard and cut the locating peg off the top so it will go under any flat bit of the car. It has a bit of a u shape so it locates round the tubes and you don't need the big handle, it turns with a screwdriver.

Likewise!

I have a small scissor jack, possibly from a MK1 or 2 Golf. It's small enough to fit under the chassis and should be easy enough to accomodate in the boot space.

Cheers

I have been using a scissor jack as well as my trolley jack while building,but have just found a mk4 escort jack is just right.
It folds down small and has its own built in handle,it also gets under the car easier too.

I have a double scissor jack from an Audi A2, it's TINY. Only 7" long, 3" high and 1 1/2" wide. I will try to post a picky sometime

Ive got one of THESE, they work very well. Only prob is they are a tad bulky.

I havent got a spare wheel so not much point in having a jack.
But I do have a can of that foam stuff and an RAC card
