So I have rotated my tires once now, and i used that frame looking thing that runs the length of the car, in a ways from the factory jack points. i used a shorty 2x4 to spread the weight a bit and it did not dent in. I am still weary about it. So I need to rotate them again today. Where is the safest place to put 2 floor jacks? If you take it to a tire shop, and they put it on a lift, where are they going to put the supports?

 

I use the same place you did and have had no problems with it at all

 

 

the indicated jacking points are fine. THat is what they are designed for. I had the car up on 4 jackstands at the 4 jacking points yesterday and today while swapping coilovers with no problems.

 

I got this awhile back from a similar thread.

 

Be careful. I used to always do the same thing until my piece of wood split a little, causing the jack to fall off the frame and put a dent in my drivers side floorboard.

 

piece of wood? where?

i always put the stands at factory jack points, and so far it's been fine. had it on all 4 points when i rotate tires.

 

where do you lift it at?

 

i think i am going to buy some of those things to put on my jacks, so i can lift on the factory spots

 

on the above picture, i put it on the "rigid rack"

 

so what lifting points do they use on a 4 point lift in a shop?

 

Good to know I am not the only one who had this happen

 

Yep, you aren't the only one. I posted about it in here back when it first happened. Several people have similar experiences.
