Jack Spots?
Where have you guys been putting the jacks at? On the passenger side I can use the frame rails. But the drivers side has the plastic skid plate on the frame rail covering it.
Also jack stands I didn't really see a ideal spot to put them at. |
Jackstands go in the same spot as almost every other modern car, between the two half moons on the other rocker joint/whatever it's called near the outside of the cars.
Rear center jack point = diff Front center jack point is normally the subframe, but it's covered.. soo.. not sure. I never use the frame rails, I've seen far too many bend in. |

Rear differential and front subframe. See attached file.

I would not use the frame rails to jack the car. For putting the jack stands, yes I believe that is an acceptable location.
Looking through the manual last night, the front has a cross member piece that has a circle on it. From the front view, it almost looks like: Code:

Search, lol.

Back end isn't that heavy so I assume the rear diff is just fine. The front is what spooks me. I see the spot they are talking about, but I hesitate. Will take this one slowly.

Is there some kind of pad you put between the jack stands and the jack point? At a quick glance, the jack point was just coated a little heavier than the rest of the underside…

I use hockey pucks when lifting cars with my Bend Pak lift.
