hey everyone
sorry if this is a stupid question: i've got to put my 914's ass high in the sky this weekend for some exhaust work. i've only got one floor jack and 2 jack stands (+ the stock jack, but i'm thinking that's not going to help me here). where should i jack from? the transmission? this can't be good for the tranny mounts... on a related note, where does everybody jack from when they're just lifting one side? thanks, nathan (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) |

I use the transmission as a jacking point, I see no problem with it as long as you are careful not to place the jack pad under the shifting mech.
when going at it from the side, I place the jack pad at the round donut shaped sheemetal on the floor |
