Where to jack up a T2

[Blackcountry Mon]

Hi - brand new to the forum .... Can anyone tell me where to jack my bus using a trolley jack - and where to place axle stands (I'm guessing under the axles??)

Thanks

This should help with the back...

The front's pretty obvious - stands go under the front beam, but mind the grease nipples as they are exactly at the obvious place where you would put the axle stands (on both sides)- and you don't want to lower your bus onto them and crush them off...

I wouldn't recommend jacking off the beam. I say this because I had my old bus nearly fall on my before when the cup slipped off the curved surface.

Personally I lift it from where the jacking points and chassis members cross or the Y section of chassis at the front (when I'm parked* up somewhere that stops my jack fitting under my low bus) :msn4:
