Disco 2 Hi-lift jacks

I have today acquired 2 hi-lift jacks, foot pads, strops and a bumper hook. We need them for an upcoming job (lifting a large wooden structure and replacing rotten timbers) consequently, i'll have all the gear left over to do what i like with. Question is, aside from the multitude of uses like winching, clamping etc, is there any kit out there to adapt/add to a stock disco 2 to allow jacking, without having to buy heavy duty bumpers or rock sliders with jacking points etc, etc?

The wheel hooks are good (easy lift? ) but if you are changing the wheel you'll still need a axle stand. But the standard Disco1 bottle Jack with cradle built in is still easier/quicker/safer.

The problem you will have is finding a spot on the disco which is not infested with tin worm.
In theory if there are no trims on sills you should be able to lift near a body mount, same on both bumpers but do be careful.

I don't really think of my High Lift as a jack, more a mulitool that can jack and that is very good at damaging things especially people if you use it carelessly.

Other than a "Hi-Lift" can be dangerous if handled wrongly, I know next to nothing about the things. But even to my untrained eye I can see that the bloke with the sunglasses in your picture is going to have a devil's own job trying to change that wheel.

Nah! You undo the nuts and remove the car thus leaving the wheel at a convenient height to work on it

That is one of the variuos ways you can use a Hi Lift.

If you fit it like that when you are going to drive in really deep mud, the Hi Lift rotates with the wheel and claws its way forward. Just remember to take it off before driving on the road................Honest...
