Jacking the rear

So LR suggest using the rear crossmember to jack the rear of the car, however the exhaust pipes are totally in the way. There's absolutely no way would I get a jack under there unless it was a mega unstable bottle jack.

Anyone else found a way around this?

I need the car up in the air and level to do the gearbox oil.

I totally agree about the jacking point. When I first got my car I read the manual, got underneath with my jack and thought, Eh??
I've made a set of wooden planks of different heights to put under the wheels because my drive has a gentle slope both ways to get it level for fluid checking.

Not a cheap solution, but 2 sets of ramps then put car in off road height is the safest solution.

I bought a set of Fiamma Level Up Jumbo. Not bad at only £32.50 for a pair:
