Rx8 Jack Stand and Floor Jack Points
#3
Thank you so much, Any other position for the jack other than the rear dif? My rx8 is lowered and I don't think it will reach. I heard about using the control arm, but I am not sure where/what that is in the rear.

The body seam is okay, just a bitch with the Mazdaspeed side skirts. And yes, the control arms on the R3 were bent from someone doing that. And the first time I got my car aligned it was on rack and they tried to lift the car that way on the rear control arms, luckily I was watching.

From the factory jack points on the pinch seam. But you must have a high jack because I am low and my jacks fits in the rear without using ramps, etc. In the front I use race ramps o get high enough for my jack to clear.

You should just do as the rest of the low car world does and drive onto something to get an extra inch or two before jacking it up. (That's what she said.) I've been using four old brake rotors lately.

Not the exact brand I use but these work well enough to get my jack in easily and I am pretty low.
