The Holden scissor lift is tempting me and the videos on their website show it in action.
If I jack up my Morgan it is always front or back, never one corner. Never had to use the small jack to change a wheel yet either.
Jacking beam for the rear and central on the Crosshead at the front. Axle stands at recommended points where triangulation points of crossmembers/ chassis parts coincide


The Holden Lift is the EZ Car Lift, you purchase the correct crossbeam so it fits the full frame of the chassis and lifts the car as one so the whole chassis is effectively supported. At the end of the day the Morgan is a light weight vehicle and the chassis is quite strong, look at the ones that have survived crashes, would take a lot more than lifting one up to cause damage, I've never heard of a Morgan chassis being weakened or damaged by lifting!!!!
