If you jacked up the rear did you put the jack under the rear cradle and if so can you tell me the exact location of the cradle? There appears to be two cast aluminum braces, one in front of the long spring (I think it is a spring, long and black) and one in the rear. I am being told the cradle point is to the front and the book seems to indicate the same - am i correct? Many thanks.
This is where I think the manual is either contradictory or i can't read well. It does clearly show the rear suspension jack points on page 10-4 but on 10-5 it says to use the cradle to lift the entire vehicle. My question is which cross member is the cradle, the one towards the back of the rear or the one towards the front of the rear suspension? the instructions below do not answer that question. Thanks.
I stopped driving up on ramps a while ago! I installed the clip on plastic pucks. Z06 has them too!~ I use my floor jack with a couple pumps raise the car. One side at a time and put the ramps under the tires. Just as easy as driving up on them.
Takes me less time you don't have to move the car or start it or get in and out a few times!
It's a better way!

…but how high are the ramps? mine are about 6" and I am wondering if you can jack the car that high on one wheel, seems like a lot. Might have to do 2 or 3 inches at a pass?

[I]Rhino ramps along with half inch piece of plywood in front of ramps works for me, works for the front of car too.I'm not sure how much lower c7 is to c6 but it shouldn't be that different.
