    Jack and stand in one action

    These are cool. We've all experience the problem where you put your trolley jack on the jacking point, lift the corner, then what? Where to put the axle stand? There's no other jacking point nearby. These stands go over your trolley jack, and you lift the car, then slot the pins in place...

    CLS Axle Stand Point

    Silly question time, I had a look under a CLS today, I could see each of the 4 jacking points, I think I'd get a jack pad to lift it up. But it was not obvious where the axel stand points were? Does anyone have any photos or description of where I put axel stands, on a W219?

    Axle Stand positions for a CLK C209

    Hi, Does anyone know the best position to place Axle Stands when lifting the front of the car? One site describes placing them under the front chassis for the W210, is the approach for the C209 the same? Is there any way to identify the most appropriate place to position them on each side? Thanks

    Axle stand position on the W203 ('01 CLK 320)

    does anyone have a visual from underneath of where to use a hydraulic jack for lifting and where to position axle stands on the car. Even better if there is a central lifting point to get the whole front/back in the air at the same time? Many thanks in advance.

    Where do I stand

    A short while ago, the sills on my ML filled up with water which overflowed into the battery dept corroding a SAM. The SAM was replaced with MB giving 36% discount on parts and labour as a goodwill gesture. Afterwards the passenger's side mirror stopped dipping when reverse was engaged. I...
