Re: I don't know jack(ing)

I jack under the centre of the front cross-member if I want to lift the
whole front or the spring pans if I just want to raise one wheel.  When
under the cross-member I make sure the rear tongue of the jack pad is
located behind the rear edge of the cross-member to prevent slippage,
because of the angle changes as the cross-member rises.
