Default Re: How do I Jack up my XFire with a FLOOR JACK???

post 35:
"Jack the entire rear up by placing the jack under the pumpkin ( differential ) then put the stands under the jack points.
Lower jack then go in from the middle of the car to the front center where you see cross member join and jack up front there.
Place stands under front jack pads and Bob's your uncle! "
after studying your post i have some doubts:
regarding this: " then go in from the middle of the car to the front center where you see cross member join and jack up front there."
could you please elaborate?
i lift the car from the differential. this i understand. it is easy to identify.
then i place stands at the 2 rear hard points. right?
but, "go in from the middle of the car". does it mean that you slide the jack between the front and rear wheels and then push it forward?
if so, how far forward? " to the front center where you see cross member join"? could you be more specific? perhaps a picture of the underneath would do?
i want to make clear that all that you do and say is highly appreciated. it is just that with a car so sophisticated, sometimes is hard to find anything among so many things.
perhaps this pic may help? https://howtune.com/articles/204-rep...ire/image-4218
i guess is that hole between the 2 bolts that hold the diagonal reinforcement straps, right?

thanks again for all of this.
