I never jack at the still, always on the chassis rail or the sub frame

I often wonder why people never expect sarcastic comments from me - they're the only reason I speak...

In that photo the axle stand is placed under the chassis rail

If you look directly above the jack you can see the area where you are meant to jack the car - its indicated by that horse shoe shape

yeah its like a jacking adaptor - sits in the jack and allows you to jack up on the proper point on the sill  :smiley:

Its solid polyurethane (sp) - got it from a GB on ukmkivs a couple of years back  :smiley:

should have been the other way around

Did you get a chance to see my picture before jacking?? As where I've placed my axle stand is about the safest place to locate it
