Recovery queries

What are the options for changing a flat front on the 100 series IFS Bantam :).
Dave.

I gather you recon you wont get the factory jack under the vehicle.


you could carry a squat bottle jack., or a heavy duty scissor jack or a small trolly jack ( there are some tiny ones)

you could drive the flat wheel up onto a block or a rock or a high point in the ground.

you couild dig a hole for the factory jack at the factory jacking point.


you could use a second standards approved jack to lift a little from another point on the vehicle such as the very front chassis member or the bullbar

an exhaust jack

nose up to a substantial tree and winch up

all of those should get you enough height to use the factory jack on the factory jacking point.

If you have not got enough clearance to get the factory jack under the vehicle with a flat front tyre .... how is the clearance off road.

cheers

G'day Bantam.
"I gather you recon you wont get the factory jack under the vehicle"

And there's the problem. The vehicle is standard and it is not possible to change a flat with the OM jack.
If it's a slow leak you can use the air comp to change/plug it but if it's staked I carry a C/Van leveller to drive on to.
Clearance is standard and fine at that. Never seen the reason to spend thousands on lifts etc.
It also gets to go some very out of the way places chasing the yellow stuff. :)
Cheers,Dave.
PS. We are talking IFS.
