A first embodiment of an apparatus for supporting a wheel (1) of a vehicle (2) includes a base (202) and a support (32) movably mounted on the base. A first locating member (206) is positioned underneath the base, and a shaft (210) is mounted to the underside of the support and extends through the base and the locating member. When an actuator (214) is retracted, the first locating member bears against the base so that the support is held in a predetermined position relative to the base. A second embodiment includes a support structure (12) and a support (32) movably mounted on the support structure. At least one locating member (208) and a clamping mechanism (200) are mounted to the support structure and the support. The clamping mechanism (200) engages the locating member so that the support is held in a predetermined position relative to the support structure.
