Spectre500 Posted January 26, 2010 Report Share Posted January 26, 2010 Hey guys, I was wondering why they say not to jack your car @ the "meatball'? Ive been jacking vehicles here for decades. I was looking at my GT 500 last night , just forward of the rear wheel and really dont see where to put the jack safely. Am I missing something here? Thanks in advance!

ChrisSD Posted January 26, 2010 Report Share Posted January 26, 2010 You can jack on the pumpkin. They say don't do it because they don't want some slack jawed moron jacking on the cover and causing a leak. If you use common sense it's fine.

If you use common sense it's fine. no to start an argument . but the reason i hear is dont jack by the pumkin because the axle tubes are not weldid to the center section , and they can twist .
