Vehicle Lift Points

LIFT AND SUPPORT POINTS

CAUTION:
^ If ground clearance is inadequate to clear the shop lift, either:
- Install rubber spacers on the coil springs to raise the car. Use the floor jack procedures to raise the car.
or:
- Remove the chin spoiler.
or:
- If you need even more clearance, install the rubber spacers and remove the chin spoiler.
^ Follow the lift manufacturer's instructions.
^ Use rubber pad adapters on the lift to avoid damaging the car.

Spacer Installation
1. Place the rubber contact pads as shown.
2. Raise the lift a few inches, and rock the car to be sure it is firmly supported.
3. Raise the lift to full height, and inspect the lift points for solid support.
4. Install rubber spacers on the coil springs.








Floor Jack
CAUTION:
- lace a rubber pad between the lift platform and the center support point to avoid damaging the car. The lift platform must contact the support point only; it must not come in contact with any other part of the car.

1. Set the parking brake, and block the wheels that are not being lifted.
2. When lifting the rear of the car, put the gearshift lever in reverse (Automatic in (P) position).
3. Raise the car high enough to insert the safety stands.
4. Adjust and place the safety stands so the car will be approximately level, then lower the car onto them.

WARNING
- Always use safety stands when working on or under any vehicle that is supported by only a jack.
- Never attempt to use a bumper jack for lifting or supporting the car.




Safety Stands
CAUTION:
- Place a rubber pad between the safety stand platforms and the car's front and rear support points to avoid damaging the car. The safety stand platforms must contact the car's support points only; they must not come in contact with any other part of the car.
