I prefer to place the jack on the front tranny mount. This gives you the best height and provides a secure jack point. Cheers, Jeff
E-mail message If I have a floor jack and want to raise the van from the center rear without doing one side and then the other (I donšt want it to tip side to side right now) is there a center point that is strong enough to be a jack point (keeping in mind that as soon as I get the butt up in the air, Išll be jack standing the leafs and letting it rest back down on them). Will the transmission hold the weight? Dave |
