Re: Jacking safely



You are well within our scope. A really nice little car. 

I don't worry much about any special points for jacking up my car. I usually place the jack on the center of the k-frame to raise the front and on the sides at the point where the frame members come together.  In the rear I place the jack either under the center of the diff or on the spring perches on the axle. That's what I do.

Hi all.  I'm a new member to this group.  I realize my '65 Valiant convertible is a little
out of the scope of this group,  but she is a mopar!  

This is my very first vintage convertible car and I'm a little nervous about the correct/safe/no frame tweak
method of jacking it up.   I'm limited to using a floor jack.  Ok to do one corner at a time
using the usual 4 lifting points from the shop manual?  

Thanks for any help with my goofy question.
