I've noticed that the front jacking points on my car aren't level, and wondered if they've gone up as the car has been lifted - thoughts? It all seems solid.

Jesus.....what is the best way to lift a 914 w/o doing damage? I have a mid-rise scissor lift in my garage and plan on putting the Six on it to keep it nice and clean on a regular basis. What is the best and safest way to lift it? I had always assumed using the donuts was correct. Then again it's been 30 years since I lifted a 914.... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

I had always assumed using the donuts was correct. Then again it's been 30 years since I lifted a 914.... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) Place some 2x6 wooden blocks on top of your lift, place them directly under the back side of the front wheel wells like Biggles posted, then elevate the lift. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads/post-16353-1585214908_thumb.jpg) I also use a couple of wooden blocks that have a groove cut into them installed under the rear section of the longs. The seams on the longs rest in the grooves when the lift is elevated. |
