Hi guys,

 

on my old Elise I used to have these plastic blocks for the rear lift points. They looked like these from Moto Concept.

But the shipping to Sweden is half the price of the item itself which is ridiculous given the size and weight.

 

Regelin has an offer as well:

but I imagine the ones Moto Concept have with the offset hole make more sense as pressure would be better distributed?

 

Who else supplies these?

 

Thanks

 

Chris

Second vote for Ice hockey pucks. £3 each and they grip the underside well and have just enough give in them.

Hi, I use pucks for lifting between the jack / axle stand and lift point, but I am referring to the rear lift points hidden behind the undertray (just to make sure there is no misunderstanding).

I thought pucks could work in the location as well, just drill a hole and screw in place, but I was unsure about the thickness.

The one's I got for the Elise where a bit too thick actually so the rearmost side undertray bolts could not be done up snuggly without grinding down the blocks.

I have ice hockey pucks mounted inside the tray, as you describe.
