Lifting, Jacking and Support Points
Caution: Ensure that the vehicle is properly supported and squarely positioned. To help avoid personal injury when a vehicle is on a hoist,
provide additional support for the vehicle on the opposite end from which the components are being removed.
Caution: To avoid any vehicle damage, serious personal injury or death when major components are removed from the vehicle and the vehicle is
supported by a hoist, support the vehicle with jack stands at the opposite end from which the components are being removed and strap the vehicle
to the hoist.
1. INSERT GRAPHIC SMGCH7942AA1
The centerline of gravity on front-wheel drive vehicles is further forward than on rear-wheel drive vehicles. Therefore, whenever removing major
components from the rear of a front-wheel drive vehicle, while supported on a hoist, it is mandatory to support the vehicle in a manner to prevent
the possibility of a vehicle tipping forward.
Notice: Never use heat to loosen a tight wheel bolt or nut. This can shorten the life of wheel and damage wheel bearings.
2. When lifting with a frame contact hoist, lift the vehicle on the side frame directly behind the front tires and in front of the rear tires. Refer to figure
on facing page.
