I need to use my floor jack and remove my wheels. The normal jack tubes are rusted out and due to be replaced shortly. In the interim, where under the car can I place the jack and not hurt anything?
Thanks, Hal Michael '73 914 2056 RAT '96 993 |

OK - confession time. Looking for a slap if this is stupid.
Since I was nervous about lifting rear using the donuts (had one start to collapse) I tried lifting the entire rear by the end of the tranny. My thought was that the lift is being transmitted straight up the tranny mounts into the reinforcement of the frame. I then put the jack stands on the trailing arms at the front. That part I'm comfortable with but am I risking damage to the tranny? |
