Re: proper jacking locations

I thought the jacking locations were in the owners manual, as well as on a plastic sheet attached to the cars' jack.

Re: proper jacking locations

the pictures that show where to jack are crap. its 4 inches back from the front tire, 8 inches forward of the rear tire on the metal pinch weld itself(the strip that drops down, there is a good chance you will be able to see where people have jacked it up before)

Re: proper jacking locations

you can buy an attachment that's just a hard plastic block with slots in it. it engages that pinchweld so the jack doesn't smash it in....
