We have a twin axle with 2 Alko wheel locks which means to comply with the CC insurance it requires jacking up to fit the second lock each time you site the van. I have discounted the Milenco wheel ramp and considering buying the Machine Mart Clarke 2 ton bottle jack advertised in the CC mag. Does anybody use it? I wonder if there is sufficent height lift if you had to change a wheel. Also it looks small so is it stable if used with a plank of wood?
