C6 jacking question
I need some help from a member who can give me the approximate dimension from center to center of the preferred jacking locations on the front & back of a C6. Harbor Freight is selling a nice jacking beam that telescopes out to 37", will this be long enough? thanks

The harbor freight cross beam adjusts in just far enough to work on the front and rear jacking points...I jack up from the rear , and still have enough room to place jack stands in the rear next to the jack.. WW

Currently I put the stands under the harbor crossbeam and it works fine but would like to use the same cross beam to jack up the other end

The lifting inserts (pucks) are only if you are lifting from the rails. They fit into the shipping slots on the rails to avoid damage to the rocker panels.
