    The picture is a little deceiving. The jack stand is under the frame, about 3-4" in from the edge of the body.

    I'll wait for you to post more definitive pics Pap as I am paranoid about jacking the rear end after my previous debacle attempt. I am comfortable with the front end - the jacking point is just behind the point where the front of the door joins the front guard.

    Did you get an 'after' picture (ala Gallagher). Drop it quick! A watermelon is traditional, but Zip wax is an okay substitute.
    :D

    There you go! Thanks mate! Thats exactly how I jacked my car up 3 days ago. Jack point under the rear lift point. I placed the chassis stands under the front lift point and the engine cradle. :) Safe, easy and quick. :)

    Thanks mate, great pics, but can you show us a pic of the exact jacking point under the car where the jack head fits.

    Texas of course!
    lol on the bottles, and that jack looks exactly like my Craftsmen one with a lifetime warranty and maybe even for less. I swear brands mean little these days, lol.

    Dont worry mate, I have 4 hard plastic wheel chocks. I think I lent them to a friend, because I could not find any of them when I took those pics that day. :)
    So the 2x4 was the next best thing at the time....... :p:p
