First of all the 4 rocker pads and the front crossmember are given in the Service Manual, however, there are questions that arise:
1) If you jack up a rocker point with a floor jack, where do you put the jack stand?
2) There is an easily accessible rear frame section where the lower control arms connect - why is this not an approved jack point? Is it because there are frame weakening crumple holes present? (I don't know if there are any in the rear but there are in the front.)
3) If you can jack the rocker points, why can't you jack the associated points on the actual frame?
Any thoughts/comments?
