Oh I see where my 2 batteries are right behind there?
Can you lift 5 inches manually or drill?
Does it lift front rear or both since in that position?

Can you reach easily to lift?
The jack bars appear light weight do you have a stronger jack turn bar? Can a drill work?

I had to make the crank handle longer (10" aprox) to reach the jack, I use the cordless drill for most of the cranking then the handle.

They're in front of the battery box, behind the front wheels, yes I find I can lift 4/5 inches. We attend festivals, wildcamp and use official sites here, in Ireland, and in France, these jacks mean I can
level, pretty much, every time without using ramps or blocks.

You have the single slide? The single slide at times lowers the rear so we use blocks to level.
Do you use blocks in rear or stabilizers in rear?
