Vehicle Lifting: Service and Repair

HOISTING RECOMMENDATIONS

Refer to the Owner's Manual for emergency vehicle lifting procedures.

When properly positioned, a floor jack can be used to lift a Jeep vehicle. Support the vehicle in the raised position with jack stands at the front and rear
ends of the frame rails.

CAUTION: Do not attempt to lift a Jeep vehicle with a floor jack positioned under:

-

A body side sill.

-

A steering linkage component.

-

A drive shaft.

-

The engine or transmission oil pan.

-

The fuel tank.

-

A front suspension arm.

-

Transfer case.

NOTE: Use the correct sub-frame rail or frame rail lifting locations only.

HOIST

Refer to the Owner's Manual for emergency vehicle lifting procedures.

A vehicle can be lifted with:

-

A single-post, frame-contact hoist.

-

A twin-post, chassis hoist.

-

A ramp-type, drive-on hoist.

NOTE: When a frame-contact type hoist is used, verify that the lifting pads are positioned properly.

WARNING: The hoisting and jack lifting points provided are for a complete vehicle. When a chassis or drivetrain component is removed from

a vehicle, the center of gravity is altered making some hoisting conditions unstable. Properly support or secure vehicle to hoisting
device when these conditions exist.
