granted we call all do it properly at home, but professional garages almost all have the side-lift arms that lift at the pinch welds. They WILL lift your car by these points, even seen dealers do it. The last shop i used to hang an exhaust bent one of my pinch welds because they didn't have adapters. most shops don't have or use them.

So I bought four slotted 'pinch weld adapters' from amazon and mounted them permanently over the pinch welds. Reinforced forever, job done.
