For 1990-2009 cars

Danger: To avoid any vehicle damage, serious personal injury or death when major components are removed from the vehicle and the vehicle is supported by a hoist, support the vehicle with jack stands at the opposite end from which the components are being removed and strap the vehicle to the hoist.

Caution: When you are jacking or lifting a vehicle at the frame side rails or other prescribed lift points, be certain that the lift pads do not contact the catalytic converter, the brake pipes or the fuel lines. If such contact occurs, vehicle damage or unsatisfactory vehicle performance may result.

Caution: Perform the following steps before beginning any vehicle lifting or jacking procedure:

• | Remove or secure all of the vehicle's contents in order to avoid any shifting or any movement that may occur during the vehicle lifting or jacking procedure.

• | The lifting equipment or the jacking equipment weight rating must meet or exceed the weight of the vehicle and any vehicle contents.

• | The lifting equipment or the jacking equipment must meet the operational standards of the lifting equipment or jacking equipment's manufacturer.

• | Perform the vehicle lifting or jacking procedure on a clean, hard, dry, level surface.

• | Perform the vehicle lifting or jacking procedure only at the identified lift points. DO NOT allow the lifting equipment or jacking equipment to contact any other vehicle components.

Failure to perform the previous steps could result in damage to the lifting equipment or the jacking equipment, the vehicle, and/or the vehicle's contents.

### Vehicle Lifting-Frame Contact Lift

#### Front Lift Pads

When lifting the vehicle with a frame-contact lift, place the front lift pads on the torque box, inboard of the rocker inner panel and outboard of the engine cradle rear mounting location.

#### Rear Lift Pads

When lifting the vehicle with a frame contact lift, place the rear lift pads on the inner rocker panel, on or near the shipping tie down locations.

### Vehicle Jacking

Caution: When you are jacking the vehicle at the front locations, be certain that the jack or the jack lift pad does not contact the front fascia, front fascia air dam, or the front fenders. If such contact occurs, vehicle damage may result. When jacking at selected front locations additional clearance may be required for the jacking points.

Note: When you are lifting a vehicle with a service jack, block the wheels at the opposite end from which you are lifting. Use jackstands to provide additional support.

#### Front of the Vehicle

When using a service jack under the front of the vehicle use one of the following locations:

1. Place the service jack pad under the rear portion of the engine cradle near the torque box locations.
2. Place the service jack under the front frame crossmember, as shown.

#### Rear of the Vehicle

Note: Place jackstands ONLY under strong and stable vehicle structures.

When using a service jack under the rear of the vehicle, place the jack pad on the rear suspension front mounting locations.
