    Likely an old topic but are the jack points easy to locate? I will be lifting one corner at a time to change my wheels. Do I use a hockey puck or a piece of wood with the floor jack.
    Thanks

    I use hockey pucks when using Quick Jacks to lift my 430. I also use them if I'm using a low profile jack.

    If possible, buy orange practice pucks. They are denser and heavier than game pucks but exact same size. They compress much less than black game pucks. Do not buy blue pucks, they are very lightweight for kids.

    It may be in the handbook - if not it has been discussed with location drawing in the 360 section

    The ones in front of the rear wheels are obvious because there are circular cutouts in the under tray. The forward area, behind the front tires, is larger but harder to describe. Basically its the thick aluminum casting that makes up the rear of the wheel well. It's inboard a bit and on an angle. There are drawings that show it, you'll need to search.

    If you are lifting to do a simple job like change wheels etc, the rear lift point lifts the whole side of the car. If something more time consuming or working under the car, then axel stands at the rear cut out and the chassis rail where it sweeps back from the control arm to outside of the car is best

    I'll be wanting to place my car on 4 axle stands while the wheels and calipers are away for refurb. Which method would be best? Jack and place axle stands at the front of the car first? Or the rear of the car first? Or 1 side first then the other?
