In the photo below, there is a part hanging down. It looks like a cover or a sump.
I have no idea what this is. Can someone help me ID this part and its function? Thanks!!(IMG:http://i851.photobucket.com/albums/ab79/1976Porsche914/100_0981.jpg) |

This is a direct cut and paste...Sir Andy said, in reference to using the rear donuts:
Except, that's not a jacking doughnut ... There's nothing structural to support the weight of the car on the backside of that doughnut. It was never meant to be used as a jacking point and it will deform if used in such a manner. popcorn[1].gif Andy PS: BTW: ETC: The same goes for the doughnut in the front. He also said the engine mounting bar was fine as long as the car is a side shifter. I respect both of your opinions, and they differ. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/WTF.gif) |

However, it is safe to put a jackstand under the rear donuts as they are (if properly installed) right under the long, which (in a solid car) is strong enough to support the weight.
