jacking points / support points S70

posted by  someone claiming to be Mad Finn on  Thu Jan 20 11:31 CST 2005 [RELATED]

I've got a 98 S70, and just picked up a floor jack and jack stands, but, I want to be sure I jack and support the car in the correct places, so:

if I want to jack up the front end, where do I jack it from, and where do I put the jack stands?

if I want to jack up the rear end, where do I jack it from, and where do I put the jack stands?

If I just want to jack up one side, to rotate the front / rear tires, where do I jack and support it?

Thanks
Mad Finn

    You can also jack in front under the A-arms using a block of wood between your floor jack and the car. In rear you can jack at the reinforced plate at the rear passenger side of the spare tire well also using a block of wood.

    The jack lift location is on the underside of the rocker panel by the rear of the front door. both front and rear wheels lift at the same time. Jack stands would be placed under the front A frame and rear axel. Remember to loosen lug nuts before jacking and tighten after lowering.
