HOISTING
POST TYPE
15
Special care should be taken when raising the vehicle on a
frame contact type hoist. The hoist must be equipped with the
proper adapters in order to support the vehicle at the proper
locations. (See next page)
Conventional hydraulic hoists may be used after determining
that the adapter plates will make firm contact with the side
frame.
FLOOR JACK
A regular floor jack may be used under the front crossmember
or rear axle housing.
Caution
1. A floor jack must never be used on any part of the
underbody.
2. Do not attempt to raise one entire side of the vehicle by
placing a jack midway between front and rear wheels.
This practice may result in permanent damage to the
body.
EMERGENCY JACKING
Jack receptacles are located at the No. 2 crossmember and
rear axle housing to accept the jack supplied with the vehicle
for emergency road service. Always block the opposite wheels
and jack only on a level surface.
