Jacks, jack stands, where do I put them? --> jack pointers inside. - Andy_TN 2003-04-07 20:06:56 (20094 views)

crap.....I put them in the wrong place!!! - oldyellar 2005-05-20 11:41:32 (482 views)

You should submit this as a FAQ. - scott12v@pghaudi 2003-04-08 05:11:18 (926 views)

Excellent pointer - MikekiM 2003-04-07 21:40:00 (1101 views)

The rocker panels have arrows on them pointing where as to place the jack as well - Pourboire(Pizzicato) 2003-04-07 20:50:27 (1176 views)

...for the factory jack. I wouldn't place a floor jack in the same spot (ON the pinch weld). - Andy_TN 2003-04-07 21:01:54 (1228 views)

just to the inside of it - Pourboire(Pizzicato) 2003-04-07 21:14:18 (956 views)

yup, but i use this to go over the spot welds - Greyhound Guy 2003-04-07 20:17:50 (1842 views)

Best spot for jackstands IMHO is where the DTS attaches. - markbradford 2003-04-07 20:12:33 (1538 views)

Sure, that works too....I like this spot because it's easy to reach, works fine. - Andy_TN 2003-04-07 20:22:04 (970 views)

Ya it's more difficult to get to for sure. And you've got to use smaller jackstands or get car HIGH - markbradford 2003-04-07 20:25:27 (1049 views)

Mark, can you point out where this PAD area is? - DigitalA4+ 2003-04-08 04:08:29 (1016 views)

Low, square, flat area that does have a hole in it yes. - markbradford 2003-04-08 05:41:15 (1112 views)

Cool thanks. I think in the pic, that's where Andy had his rear jack stands placed (last pic). - DigitalA4+ 2003-04-08 05:45:58 (808 views)

And yeah, the pad where Andy has his rear jack stand is the area I'm talking about. - markbradford 2003-04-08 07:15:09 (766 views)

Can I use rhino ramps during my DTS install or will it get in the way? - DigitalA4+ 2003-04-08 07:48:07 (1260 views)

Rhinos will be OK for sure. I can't get up on them tho. =( - markbradford 2003-04-08 07:52:49 (798 views)

Barely... - DigitalA4+ 2003-04-08 08:01:12 (614 views)

No I mean - will you be able to get your body under the car with enough room to work? - markbradford 2003-04-08 08:09:16 (627 views)

I see what you mean. - DigitalA4+ 2003-04-08 08:12:06 (624 views)

I go all the way underneath. - markbradford 2003-04-08 08:21:11 (534 views)

You could always use a little creativity to get onto the ramps....if needed. - Andy_TN 2003-04-08 08:04:37 (653 views)

Thanks. I need to do that now to get on some lifts. :-) - DigitalA4+ 2003-04-08 08:13:39 (517 views)

Heh. Once you've got the DTS in it's even easier. - markbradford 2003-04-08 07:13:20 (796 views)

Sweet. Thanks again. - DigitalA4+ 2003-04-08 07:46:03 (476 views)

Oh I hear ya on the pinch welds, that's why I've oriented as such. - Andy_TN 2003-04-07 20:34:39 (1055 views)

Are you concerned about ruining the undercoating there? - markbradford 2003-04-07 20:37:43 (640 views)

What's that undercoating made of? I got a chunk taken out earlier this week driving into a parking - CMC 2003-04-07 21:21:20 (864 views)

Rubber? - Andy_TN 2003-04-07 21:31:14 (810 views)
