Thanks for the feedback. I figured for the money they were worth a try!

OK thanks for your swift reply, much appreciated. I'm going with the rubber inserts for now, its a cost over use thing. Basically I have one return journey to make to France with a caravan: The outfit sags ever so slightly too much for me to risk over the ferry ramps etc. I tow in England and it's okay but it's only just okay...so I'm being a little over cautious maybe, but if the rubber inserts give me half an inch I'll be a little more comfortable. So, for £30 im giving them a go versus buying the auxilliary springs at £160 and getting someone to fit them for another £100. I dont mind having a go putting the rubbers in, but I'm not up for undoing shocks/taking springs off etc.

Sorry, new here so forgive me for being an idiot. I'm fitting Grayston Spring Assistors to a 2014 Octavia 4x4 estate (Tour De France rather than Scout) and want to use an axel stand rather than just the jack. I've searched on here and found some suggestions but want a second opinion...my plan is to use the OEM jack on the sill weld as if changing a wheel...would it be okay to place an axle stand under the round bit (circled red) which is a few inches further underneath and slightly towards the back of the car from the jacking point (indicator arrow circled yellow). Would this be okay? If not where? I've wrecked a sill on a car before many years ago so being a bit cautious. Picture taken from near side read jacking point. Any help is much appreciated.
