Rubber Jacking Pads Available
Discussion
Hi All
These pads look terrific. I looked at the US ones but could not justify the huge cost so made my own by cutting down some ice hockey pucks. They are OK but do not have the locating lugs.
I have a 2010 Roadster. Are these ones available for a Roadster yet? Anyone bought and tried them?
Cheers

Hi Brian yes they are available for the Roadster just email him for a set. These pads look terrific. I looked at the US ones but could not justify the huge cost so made my own by cutting down some ice hockey pucks. They are OK but do not have the locating lugs.

I ordered AM4 for my original V12 Vantage. They look to be right although not confirmed by actually trying them yet. I think it possible that the additional material removal to suit the rear under tray could still mean these will fit many Vantage models even those that don't have the extra plate.

Once you've given them a try would you mind posting back on here, thanksI'm still waiting for my scissor ramp which was my main reason for buying these but I've just been under the car and these fit perfectly as far as I can see with limited view. They actually locate in place and look correct.
I had an original pattern picture sent to me by an independent dealer (who I was buying from off of ebay) and these look the same.

Hi, I ordered AM4 pads for my 2010 roadster which arrived quickly and look great. Problem is they do not fit. Spoke with Steve this morning who was superb but surprised as he said other owners had them and they fitted perfectly. So, we are now trying to work out why my car is different.
Pics below show my front and rear jacking points and the pads. You can see that the locating pegs are in the wrong place on both and the shapes of rear one does not match the car. Does anyone else have these pads and a roadster which they fit? Do the mounting points on my car look the same as others?
Thanks in advance

I have had a couple of weeks of email conversation, photographs and measurements on my MY18 V12S Roadster to get the jacking pads right. I have been hugely impressed by Steve's attention to detail and professionalism. Mine are in the post to me, already have the tracking number, but he has modified the AM4 pads for the V12 Roadster front jacking point which it appears are different, dependant upon which lower side skirts you have (i decided not to ask). The under tray fixing point is the bolt in the photograph. I will let you know when I have tried them. Stephen

Hi all, I ordered a set of AM-4 jack pads from Steve to use with my Vantage V8S SP10 Coupe.
This car has the V12 Sills on them I believe, which may be the case with all S models.
Steve was great with his communications and service and the jack pads duly arrived yesterday. I had a little tinker outside today and I’m pleased to say that they fit perfectly and I am very impressed with the quality and service :-)

Andrew M.

Hi V8BJC l do not think your jacking points are different they look the same as my 2007 V8 Vantage Roadster.
If you look at the picture of my home made jacking pad on page one, you can see the dent in the rubber of the locating peg hole Which looks similar to your picture and slightly different to Steve’s AM4 pad hope that helps.
I will be trying to get a set of steve pads so l will contact him as well and try to be of some help as well.
