I am trying to jack my car higher but my floor jack cannot jack high enough at the usual side and the middle knob near the engine. Anyone know where else I can jack the car safely? I can put block of wood but it still have to be stable enough so that I can jack high enough to put in my jack stands. Both front and back. Thanks. Edit: Front this picture, the front point where it was jacked, looks like it's the lower arm connection point. Is that safe?
Check Amazon for "jack puck". You can stack them to gain some height with a jack to clear your stands. (I hope that is the kind of jack you are using).... REVVL V+ 5G ?
You mean this thing? I already have a few variation of them and all get pressed until it broke. I still use them but they are not in conditions for stacking.
How much clearance do you need? You might need to place something solid under the jack to gain some height. Posted via the PriusChat mobile app.
I need as much clearance as I can get from my jack stand. Yes, I will place a wood block under the jack but it still need to be jacked from somewhere safe. The side doesn't work as there is the protruding pinch weld (not sure what it's called). I have a few idea but would like to get more opinion on the safest method. Safety most important.
Yes those are the ones. They also have similar ones with grooves for the jack stands so I place them where the manual says on the pinch welds. (I think the same spots as the temporary jack for changing to the spare tire). Hmm. Haven't broken one yet but I do buy replacements once in a while. (I tend to misplace things). REVVL V+ 5G ?
The Safejacks Rennstands are probably some of the most expensive jacksands, but they will be the last ones that you'll ever buy.
