Subject:Vanagaon axle stand height?

Hi 

A slightly OT question, but still should make it into the FAQ, since everybody needs it?

What is the needed height of axle stands for the Vanagon?

I am asking, since all the shops around here only has 35 cm height (or so) axle stands. Cheap, yes. 2 ton capacity, yes. But not the clearence needed for the Vanagon, I guess.

If I dont get any input, I guess that I will jack the car myself, and measure the height needed to take off the roadwheels, and then make the entry for the FAQ myslf :-)

But if one of you guys has the info the hand, I can get on with searching the net for axlestands available near Copenhagen, and then I can get them today - and begin working properly (I have not yet had the car up in the air - I do not work underneath vehicles only supported on jacks...)

Happy driving

JJ
