    Jacking up rear of W212 and axle stands

    Just in case this is of any use, I had all my wheels off to paint calipers at the weekend. I used the jacking pad mid engine to place an axle stand under the front, but could not find anything similar on the rear. In the end, i jacked up each side and placed axle stands as shown in the pics...

    Jack stands

    Hi all, I have a 2004 c class estate, had it 18 months. It's got an annoying rattle underneath at the rear, it's not the exhaust. I've bought a trolley jack and jack stands, my question is where do the jack stands go. Your help would be much appreciated. Brent

    Would you trust these "My Liftstand" ratcheting car stands?

    I saw these, and while they look really good, I suppose I'd have to inspect the mechanism myself to trust them not to just drop while in use... What do you think? Would you get under a car held up by these? I can't help feeling I'd want to throw a block of wood under each before rolling...

    winter storage - axel stands or tyre saver things?

    Its time for the old ce to hibernate till spring. I could really do with it rolling as I have a few things to do in the garage and around the car. I usually put it up on stands but wounder if those floor pads that curve the tyres are any good. Has anyone used them? Scott

    W203 estate > where to place axle stands?

    As above, are there any specific points to place axle stands? Obviously can't use the jack points on the sills, but can't see anywhere else obvious to use (looked at the bottom of the spring cup/suspension arm, but doesn't look safe).

    Car ramps/ axle stands

    Hi all, I have a w209, and was trying to find a place to put axle stands.. It seems on most of the jobs I need to do requires the wheels off. And not having a car ramp seems to be a problem. Any ideas?
