I've read lots of threads here about jack points but I haven't seen anyone comment on this specifically.
Is there any problem with putting jack stands under the rear trailing arms at their pivot points? |

PLEASE make sure your jack stands have LOCKING PINS. No locking pins might make a big difference in your health.

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) One of the members of this BBS had to have his face rebuilt after his ratchet-type jack stands let go and dropped his 914 on his head. Good thing he was already married! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) (Just messin' with ya, Gint!!) --DD |
