front jack points (photo)

Everyone knows about the rear jack points on a 360 being marked with the circular indentation, but I have read a few different options on where the front jack points are.
My local Ferrari dealership had a "tour the service department" day. While there, I took a picture of a 360 on a lift. (Right front wheel shown) Now we cal all see where the "factory" places the lift for the front. It is right in the center of the curve of the wheel well,just at the very edge

That's interesting. Did you ask them?

 

Anyplace on the arc is appropriate IIRC.

 

Yes, the mechanic and I had a discussion about it. These were on the "center" of the arc, but the mechanic said anywhere on the arc is fine.

 

They put it there as it's difficult to put the front arm of a two post lift closer to the sill. If you're using a trolley jack then you're best using the dirty silver circle by the red side skirt - it's where the car was bolted to the assembly line in Italy.

 

This is good information. Will help getting the car on jack stands as we now know where to jack and where to place the stand (on the same corner). Thanks for sharing this!

 

Yes awesome, but what about placing a stand at the rear? Dang I had to put the old wheels back on when I was getting new tires on my OZs.

 

The rear undertray has a ~4" circular indentation just in front of the rear tire marking the location of the jack. That one is easy.

 

Not really

The front one is ease; you can jack up the car in the rear jack point and the front will lift as well to enable you to place a jack stand somewhere at the points described above in this thread.

The rear is more difficult. The jack point is indeed well indicated, but without removing some plastic from the underside of the car it is not so obvious where you can place both your hydraulic jack and a jack stand. There are several threads on this subject already; some have placed wood or a flat-top jack stand underneath the lowest part of the rear suspension (after taking of the rear wheel). Others have removed some plastic to place a stand underneath the frame at the inside end of the rear suspension. Others have gambled by placing a jack stand underneath the rear 'wings'.
