hey guys. todae i jacked my car up to put my 02 sensor back in becuz i didn't have it on. so wen i did that i juss jacked to car up anywhere and i bent my car. like where i jacked my car up, made a bump and i feel it inside the drivers side. anyways i guess all i could do about that is try to hammer it down from inside. but i was wondering guys, where are the jack points??

how am i supposed to reach that far down into my car with a car jack. that thing is RIGHT in the middle.

 

I borrowed a jack from my dad's car and jacked up both sides. This would at least give you easier access to the center jack points.

 

i usually jack up one side up with the stock jack. (my car is very low). once that is high enough i stick a floor jack under.

 

It's right in the middle so you can raise the entire front or back from just one jack point. Get a low-profile floor jack.

Don't forget the jack-stands.

 

Exactly what I do, and jack from the same points as in those pictures. Works very well.

 

I wouldn't get under a car without jackstands. It's really not safe. They're pretty cheap too at Sears.

 

Reed yo owners man-u-well

 

owners manual only tells you side jack points, i believe. not 100% positive.

 

lol some people are just not gifted.

 

the side jacking points are plenty adequate

 

Im wondering whats so bad about jacking it one side at a time ?

I jack my 8 up just 2 days ago (change oil) and what I did was I jack it using the side jacking points. sure it bend some of the stuff but I think its ok.

Next time I will try to jack the center point as mention above. Cuz its almost due for Gear and Rear Diff oil change :D

 

3 lb hammer..

where are the side jack points?

 

have you read the owners manual... and did you try the jack that is in the back of the car???

i am trying to help you help yourself.

Nothing's wrong with that, if you're changing a wheel or doing something else that doesn't involve getting under the car.

If you're going under the car, use jack stands. The car's jack isn't stable enough to trust your life to. A hydraulic floor jack may be more stable, but does not have a positive locking mechanism.

People do get killed every now and then from trusting a jack.
