This kit brings a compatible Sealey jacking beam up to that width by replacing its lifting arms, which means an existing beam can be made to meet the new specification rather than scrapped and bought again.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe replacement load arms extend to 1700mm and fit in place of the originals using the beam's own mounting points. The compatible beams already meet the 2 tonne minimum capacity for Class 4, so once the arms reach 1700mm the beam meets the new requirement on both capacity and width.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"djm-features-benefits\"\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"djm-section-title\"\u003eFeatures and benefits\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"djm-feature-container\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"djm-feature\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"djm-feature-title\"\u003eMeets the 2026 MOT specification\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eReplaces the lifting arms on a compatible Sealey jacking beam so it meets the jacking equipment specification the DVSA sets for Class 4 MOT bays from 1 April 2026.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"djm-feature\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"djm-feature-title\"\u003eReaches the full 1700mm\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe new load arms extend to a reach of 1700mm, the minimum distance between lifting pad centres the DVSA now requires, with the width to lift wider modern vehicles on their jacking points.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"djm-feature\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"djm-feature-title\"\u003eSwapped in minutes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe arms are held by a few screws, so the upgrade is a straightforward swap.
