|
|
I've got a pair of jack stands (axle stands?) and want to lift the front of the Sud up, but I'm not sure where exactly is solid enough to locate them? Obviously the jacking points, but I've got to put the jack somewhere too???
thanks,
Evan. _________________ http://www.trofeoalfasud.com

Basically anywhere where the suspension etc is connected to the chassis |

You can use the front crossmember (with the towing point) to raise the car and put the axle stands at the jacking points. Done it several times and is a recommended method by Alfa.
Succes,

or you could simply buy a set off ramps.
you simply just drive up em then, make sure ur car isnt lowered first tho cos u may not get up on the ramps. i figured that one out the hard way lol |
