I need to put my 97 on jack stands to check connections. Can someone tell me the safe location to put the jack stands. Its a plastic car and I don't want to put them in the wrong place. I don't have a lift so I have to use stands. My concern is the front. Any help? Never done this before on this car.

I found this on YouTube.

Make sure you use jacking pucks for sides (2 front, 2 back).

Have you thought about the hover mod?



No? I use the cross member for my jack stands.

Don't want to hijack,but what color is your car?

Torch red

Don't put them under the leaf spring, ball joints, near body panels, or parts of the chassis that appear too thin to bear the load.

Build sheet says Medium Pearl Purple. 1 of 381 painted in this color. 1998 only.

^First one I have ever seen. I thought you had it painted.

Nope, factory color. Here's a little thread I have on it if you care to look.

Thanks and I'm done with the hy-jacking. Sorry about that popshumphery. That video is pretty informative though.
