Where can a jack lift a car?
1 Answers
There is a protruding long edge along the bottom of the car, and on this long edge, there are several thickened areas designed for jack placement. For household cars, the support points are usually located on the inner side of the side skirts, resembling two fins on either side of the chassis. These are positioned approximately 20 cm behind the front wheels and 20 cm in front of the rear wheels. These fins protrude from the chassis steel plate and can withstand relatively high pressure. Every jack has its designed maximum load capacity. It is crucial not to exceed this limit to prevent insufficient support and potential accidents. When lifting the vehicle, try to remove heavy items from inside the car.
