Working on Subframe

Note the following whenever working on the subframe:

The suspension components could be damaged.

Do not rest the vehicle on its wheels if the subframe mount, the steering gear or the subframe crossbrace are not installed correctly.

Do not support the vehicle on the subframe or the subframe crossbrace, for example, by a floor jack or similar device.
