Ok .. I've finally got around to dragging out my teener ... yippee just in time for 10 more inches of snow ... crap ... geez is it ever going to warm up ? anyway ... heres the deal ... I've ha plenty of cars on my asymetric lift but no rear engined cars ... so do I basically load it "backwards" and use the jack points to support it and how much overhang ? or ? picts or guidance would really be cool b4 it falls off !

I normally put 911's and 914's on "backwards", i.e. with the short arms to the rear. I put the lift pads under the "donuts" on the chassis.

That being said, with an 1800 # car on a 9000 # lift, I don't think it's too critical.

YMMV

Thanks ... I kinda figured as much .. but you just never know who might stop by and lean on the wrong spot .. case in point I had a TR6 on it for most of the winter and the old man stopped by and I was working on the rear wheel bearings and in his normal curiosity started pushing and pulling on stuff saying "gee this thing looks pretty clean" ... I reply back geez Dad knock it off you trin' to kill us both ... needless to say I now have two tri-pods to support said vehicle while up in the air. I'm over parinoid cause I suspect your not walking away if one of these falls off and your underneath...
