frame contact type hoist. The hoist must be equipped with the
proper adapters in order to support the vehicle at the proper
locations.
Caution
When service procedures require removing rear suspen-
sion, fuel tank, spare tire and lift gate, place additional

Front:
Under the mid point of centermember
tAWD> Under the mid point of crossmember
Rear:
Under the jack up bracket of rear floor pan
Under the rear differential
Cautions
1. Never use a jack at the lateral rod or rear suspension
assembly.
2.In order to prevent scarring the centermember
or crossmember ,
place a piece of cloth on the
jack’s contact surface (to prevent corrosion caused by
damage to the coating).
3. A floor jack must never be used on any part of the
