What size trolley jack do you use to lift your Patrol?
I have 3000kg jack stands but not sure on the minimum size for the jack.

Mine is also 2500Kg

I have lifted one whole end with it, but remember, you are normally only lifting one corner at a time, so 2500Kg is ample.

Are you able to lift the full rear with the 2000kg trolley?

I use a 2000kg trolley jack and it lifts my Patrol easily. I use 5 ton axle stands for height/clearance.
Got them from TradeTools ages ago.
