Vehicle Lifting: Technical Service Bulletins
Vehicle - Lift Standards & Approved Suppliers
Bulletin: TE95-0O2
Section: Tools & Equipment
Date: 2/7/95
Model: ALL
Applicable to: USA/CND
This bulletin is a revision of one previously issued on 6/3/93, bulletin number TE93-001.
LRNA has developed the following standards for use when selecting lifts for Land Rover products. Using unapproved lifts can be dangerous for the
Technician and/or damage the vehicle.
Companies that are listed below supply automotive lifts that meet the standards. Contact them directly for dealer net pricing, lease/financing plans,
delivery and installation information. (Lift purchases are not handled through LRNA.)
4 Post Lifts
- Required to meet minimum standards
- Approved for all Land Rover products
The 4 post lift requirements for your dealership/Land Rover Centre remain unchanged. (Please refer to the Land Rover Dealership Planning Guide to
identify your requirements.) A 4 post lift is the ONLY RECOMMENDED LIFT for use with Range Rover Classic, Discovery and Defender. We
strongly recommend that one is also used for Range Rover 4.0 SE, although we do now approve an alternative lift as described later in this bulletin.
The 4 post lift is the only lift that counts towards satisfying lift requirements detailed in the Land Rover Dealership Planning Guide.
