Yeah these will do together with the jack stands. Just make sure the jack stands position on hard points of your car.
Put a spare tire beside you as an insurance.
id just like to clarify its actually specific jack points on the car, check your manual/google to see where this is. normally notches dictate this.
Also to add on above, this jack raise up to 359mm .. so make sure your body fits +-340mm or less.
This is a good deal but be warned, like dcep says 359mm is not that high, doesn’t leave a lot of elbow room to swing a breaker bar.
Don't think these will fit under a clio… :(
Why not?
Ground clearance for clio is 159mm which is lower than the jack and stand heights
Jack specs:
Height Lowered: 89mm
Height Raised: 359mmYou will have 70mm clearance to get the jack under and then adjust the stands as required. It will be fine.
I don't think a Clio would be low enough to prevent a trolley jack from going under, unless it has modified suspension, but there are low profile ramps (example here) to increase clearance if ever needed.
Curious, this jack has a small contact point plate (not sure on it's correct name). Is it better to get a jack with a larger contact plate? I'm just imagining all that wight being transferred to a small contact point may but too much pressure on that section of the car.
Your car has a few specific contact points for precisely this scenario 👍
You're right that you can't put the jack under 95% of the car body, most of it isn't designed to support the weight of the car. But this has nothing to do with the jack design…
It's called "saddle" where the jack will make contact with and take the weight of the vehicle. Your best bet for DIY is a 2000kg Low Profile Jack whose saddle is larger, makes it easier to position the jack without making dents on the vehicle's steel parts.
This trolley Jack go high enough for a Tiguan? Just general stuff like brakes and oil changed
