Trolley Jack Plate - Aircooled VW - 1950-79

Safely lift your classic Volkswagen with this jacking point adapter plate, designed to slide directly into the original factory jacking point found on classic aircooled VW models. Once fitted, it provides a strong, secure lifting point that allows the use of modern trolley jacks, hydraulic floor jacks and workshop lifts, helping to prevent damage to the vehicle`s floorpan, sills and bodywork.

The original Volkswagen jack sockets were designed for the factory jack, but many owners now use trolley jacks for safer and more stable lifting. Without the correct adapter, there is a risk of crushing the floor, bending the jacking points or allowing the jack to slip from uneven bodywork. This adapter eliminates these problems by transferring the load through the factory jacking socket as intended.

Ideal for routine servicing, wheel changes, brake work or full restorations, this jacking plate is an essential workshop accessory for any classic Volkswagen owner.

We Recommend

For safe lifting, always use:

• Axle stands once the vehicle has been raised
• A solid, level surface
• Wheel chocks to prevent vehicle movement
• Suitable lifting equipment with the correct weight capacity

Never rely solely on a hydraulic jack to support the vehicle while working underneath it.
