Hello onto everyone I am leaving my '92 348TB at a paint shop for some minor repainting around the wheel wells and ground spoiler in the front... just the usual miniscule chips from highway driving. the car will be jacked up. However the last time I had it up (for a tire change at a "professional" tire shop) my car was literally 1/2 destroyed as they jacked it up in the wrong places, smashed BOTH radiators in on the back, and... a few other "great" surprises. Could someone let me know what are the exact 4 jack points on the car so I can tell the people at the body shop precisely where to get it up without damaging anything anywhere on the car?... On my 360 they are clearly marked when i look underneath the car, but on the 348, there is nothing at site! Thanks a lot!

what they were used to jacking up is a sill(outer lower panel).at first glance they think its stuctural.unfortuately its not .funny how aluminium rads and coolers cant support ferrari weight.(light as they are).the front isnt the problem the rear is every time.at the risk of being crude, glue or rtv a grommet onto the inner chassis rails to indicate to someone thats where a hoist pad goes . you thought you new what they were doing .unless you ask them to lift it here and there personally,dont leave it to them.why are you getting it lifted. hoist arent that dear its just having roof space.imagine staring at your car from a whole new angle (like a possum )
I have some pictures of the 348 jack points in this thread: http://www.ferrarichat.com/forum/showthread.php?t=75404&highlight=saturday+348+update I think it was Brent Lachlet that alerted me to the possibility of puncturing the radiator using the edge of the car for the rear wheels. Be careful! BT
