NOTE: If you are going to remove heavy com
ponents
such as suspension or the fuel tank from the rear of the
vehicle, first support the front of the vehicle with tall
safety stands. When substantial weight is removed
from the rear of the vehicle, the center of gravity can
change, causing the vehicle to tip forward on the lift.
1. Position the lift blocks (A) under the vehicle’s front support points (B) and rear support points (C).
2. Raise the lift a few inches, and rock the vehicle gently to be sure it is firmly supported.
3. Raise the lift to its full height, and inspect the vehicle support points for solid contact with the lift
blocks.
To support the vehicle on safety stands, use the same
support points as for a vehicle lift. Always use safety
stands when working on or under any vehicle that is
supported only by a jack. 1. When lifting the front of the vehicle, set the parking
brake. When lifting the rear of the vehicle, put the
shift lever in reverse for manual transmission, or in
P for automatic transmission.
2. Block the wheels that are not being lifted.
3. Position the floor jack under the front jacking bracket (A) or the rear jacking bracket (B). Center
the jacking bracket on the jack lift platform (C), and
jack up the vehicle high enough to fit the safety
stands under it.
4. Position the safety stands under the support points, and adjust them so the vehicle is level.
5. Lower the vehicle onto the stands.
