Vehicle Lifting: Service and Repair


LIFTING, JACKING SUPPORT LOCATION

FLOOR JACK AND RIGID RACK

CAUTION
^ Never place a support at any point other than the specified one, or that point will be deformed.
^ For lifting, put rubber or similar material between the side sill and rigid rack, otherwise the side sill area will be damaged.






POST TYPE
Special care should be taken when raising the vehicle on a frame contact type hoist. The hoist must be equipped with the proper adapters in order to support the vehicle at the proper locations.

CAUTION
When service procedures require removing rear suspension, fuel tank and spare tire, place additional weight on the rear end of vehicle, or anchor vehicle to hoist to prevent tipping when the location of the center of gravity changes.
