I have received my Al-Ko jacking brackets today to go with the Al-Ko jack that I recently purchased from Ebay.

The brackets can fit two diffrent ways (long side on chassis or short side on the chassis)

The instructions say that the fitting orientation depends of whether you have a low frame chassis or a high frame chassis.

Does anybody now what they mean by low frame / high frame chassis ? Or can anybody tell me which way around to fit the brackets on a 2008 Bailey Ranger 540/6

Ooops - Sorry just had a look and realised they will only fit one way !

For reference it would seem we have a High Frame chassis.

Good to hear it's all sorted, It's always best to ask if you're not sure, you did the right thing.

I had a bit of that fitting my Kojac ones on one side, a little bit of repositioning and they were fine. Whatever you do, don't decide to drill fresh holes in a more convenient place, that's a definate no-no. Good luck.

Got one on and only removed the skin off one knuckle.

Then the rain came so I will try and get the other one done before we go away this weekend.
