Positioning the jack
Rear jacking point:
Before positioning the jack, ensure that the air
suspension system is frozen (keyremoved
from starter switch, hazard lights switched on,
and tailgate open). If the vehicle had
previouslysettled to Low ride height (or
Access), it will be necessary to improve
access beneath the vehicle by starting the
engine and raising the vehicle to Standard or
High ride height before positioning the jack.
Always position the jackfrom the front or rear
of the vehicle directlyin line with the jacking
points.
Push the mud flap (if fitted) up over the tyre
to allow clear access. Position the jackso that,
when raised, it engages with the rear axle
casing immediatelybelow the air spring and
as close as possible to the shock absorber
mounting bracket (see illustration).
Front jacking point:
Position the jackso that, when raised, it will
engage with the front axle casing immediately
below the air spring (see illustration). The
cradle of the jackmust locate between the end
of the axle and the point where the radius arm
attaches to the axle (see illustration).

vehicle.
ALWAYS use the complete, two piece,
jacking lever throughout to minimise any
accidental contact with a hot exhaust
system.
