best jack stand spots? pics please
i posted this before but i didnt really get any good replies. last time i put my car up on jackstands, it was extremely akward. wonder if you guys could give me a hand, as im doing my first oil change on this car today.
pics help immensely. where do i place the jack stands? |
Here ya go, this should help you out some.
http://www.kc2jga.com/jack.JPG You will see a flange that extends downward. Place the groove of the jack into this flange. |
Jack points are clearly listed in the owners manual and should be shown with the jack/spare/tire wrench package in the trunk.

For a jack(not the one that comes with the car, a real one), I use the jackpoint with a wood block (2x4 about 6") so that the jack doesn't mess the jack point up. For the jack stands, I put them on the subframe in the front, near the mounts. Haven't had an issue so far

:stupid: ;)
i used my floor jack on the jack points and bent them in :? the jack points are more for a bottle jack or one like for the spare tire...but if you use a block of wodd it whould be fine, and jack stands to the sub frame ;) |
jack stands to the sub frame and between bonnevilleclub and the manual, id rather trust bonnevilleclub. also, the manual means i have to get up when someone on here might have be able to make it a lot easier with very little trouble (if its more than very little, please dont bother) |
