Actually it is now a perfect fit, but I have realised that it isn't plywood!

Wi,l be making a suitable plywood version soon.

That’s always my worry. It’s ok if it’s low ish on the ground and the wheels are there but it could be worse

I used to use a modified hockey when I changed the wheels on my Jaguar XFS.
But then I decided it was too much hard work lugging wheels around I would rather pay the £20 for someone to do it for me!

Trying to find someone that will do it for £20 is a challenge. It’s a bit of exercise for my lazy fat a55.

Cheers for recommending it. Just received it and looks like a solid piece of kit at less than a tenner. should hold up to my wheel changes.
Will be shoving on the wheels in the next couple of days so will give it a good testing. Hopefully it all fits😄

Just made my own Aluminium jack pad on the lathe this afternoon, the lad that sells them on ebay kindly put the dimensions on, half hour later and there is a jack pad in my spare wheel tool kit. Last time I jacked car up I used a lump of wood so this little tool will come in handy.
