Metallifacture jack

Hi Jono +1 ,
I didn't think of that.
I know for my Sprint original Jack for me is just for polishing. Tried to use it once and very dodgy. Lots of noises and the thrust bearing in it broke.
Use Scissor Jack now and Plank of wood under the Sill.

That was my initial thought Alan, but it is the correct position as Jon said to clear the cill edge. The jack in the earlier reply by TonyA is also the same as mine.

On the subject of jacks, my Plus 2 came with an Elan Metallifacture jack that I was going to convert by removing the platform and fitting a pin so if anyone wants to swap for the Plus 2 one I'm up for it.

...it needs a refurb but otherwise all good
