Vehicle Lifting: Service and Repair

LIFTING, JACKING SUPPORT LOCATION




FLOOR JACK

CAUTION:
- Never support any point other than the specified one, or it will be deformed.
- For lifting, put rubber or similar material between the side sill and rigid rack, or 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 rear end of vehicle or anchor vehicle to hoist to prevent tipping of center of gravity changes.
