Hi, there is a good selection here, http://www.machinemart.co.uk/shop/categ ... -equipment

Which type of Jack do you need? Many don't use the standard one which jacks up by the crossmember due to safety issues.

You must NEVER use the standard jack - or anything that uses the crossmember jacking points...... A small light trolley jack is ideal - and carry it with you, along with a couple of slabs of timber. ONLY jack under the suspension - as near to the wheel as possible.

I use a sissor jack for a roadside emergency,got it out of a scrapper in a yard,under the spring at the back and under the suspension arm at the front,safer than the original system,on you and the car .
