[Frustrated] PLEASE HELP ME [jacking points]
I just tried to get the butt in the air by backing it up our metal ramps and the torque shot the ramps foward from under it. It fell and the ramps caught it on the rail just foward of the jack pts. Im planning on using 2 floor jacks simultaneously and saftey stands but where the hell to put the jack, and then the stands. My dad is afraid that the plastic will bread where the jacking arrows are if we lift there, and then where do we put the stands? I had planned to use the rail for the jack and the stands but now am afaid that it will break. :( :( :nonod:

If you look just aft of the jackpoint arrows on the rear there is a flat spot on the frame that you can jack by. Just be careful of the brake lines on the driver side and the fuel lines on the passenger side. When I put my car on jackstands I jack from ther and then put the stands in between the arrows.
These are my stands, I have 2 sets of them (4 total).
I set the car down in the deepest part of the stand right in between the two arrows. Just let the car down SLOWLY onto them and nothing will bend/snap/break/chip.
