The trouble I've had in the past with jacking on the rear tow eye is you need a trolley jack that goes pretty high to get the sills high enough to fit axle stands under.....

Yeah it was all sorted. Only damage I did was put a jack through a side skirt and I managed to get hold of a pair on the DC5 for a lot less than I would have paid new. The other one is on TypeGrrr's old DC5.

Wicked!

Always nice to hear these kind of outcomes. I guess it could have been alot worse.

TypeGrrr's, from the motorbike incident iirc? Anyway at least it's all sorted now.
