Nowt in my rear door pocket but a spare rear number plate, and some sweet wrappers....... I have got the tool for removing the locking caps though...
Yerp, of the three Disco's I bought two had the full kit and the manual, one even had the spare key.
I will do you a video if you like it’s very easyThat's great!
any chance of a slightly longer post telling us how you stripped it down?
and indeed if you do find a source for the O-rings/seals, that would be brill!!!
If you put up a video as part of the thread that would be amazing for all of us, and info re new seals would be fantastic too.
Any more updates?Update guys
Possibly got some seals will do my best to reassemble next couple of days if it works out il put a list of seals I used
Yes
I think they measured them then just wrote now the size and grabbed from stock. I’m away now for a week I have to upload a guide on how to strip the jack down il see if I can get more info on the seals I used. Do you have a seal retailer close to you
Even if they just tell you the sizes that would be a big help!
Amended seal size: Thanks for posting this image. Just got mine in bits. Like you, after 20 years occasional use, mine is leaking. Suspect the piston-to-cover seal at the top, it's lost its shape. Have ordered 35mm ID x 2.5mm cross section O Ring from Seals R Us on eBay. Did you find a kit or did you buy the parts and if so, what size O rings did you purchase?
They are the preferred jack on the Eriba caravan forum, but most have to carry them separately.
Any update on the video mate?
Hi Guys sorry for the long wait but finally got around to the video. It’s more of a walk through instead of a strip down but it’s such a simple job I didn’t want to take mine back apart. Here’s the link any questions please let me
I thought the D1 bottle jacks stored upright in the engine bayI guess I know that. And I have axle stands to throw at dogs including some really high ones. but there is a tiny corner of my being that likes to keep the equipment the vehicle came with working as standard. I have three of them as I have 2 D1s and a D2. The D1 ones travel in their place vertically and of course the D2 one is stored on its side. The D1 ones are fine.
I have no idea if being stored on their sideis an issue.
But I do like them as they are compact and have exactly the right head on them for the job.
TBH I use the trolley jack for other stuff too.
They do, that's what he said dips.
Mine has the manual, and the jack.
Yes, as I said, "The D1 ones travel in their place vertically"
