Doug's GT500 Posted July 1, 2014 Report Share Posted July 1, 2014 I am going to paint my front calipers so, I need to jack the car up to place jack stands under it. My question is If I use the Ford recommended lifting points for my floor jack, then how do I place my jack stands on the same lifting points? Are there other temporary lifting points? Thanks!

MTYQIN Posted July 1, 2014 Report Share Posted July 1, 2014 Doug, There is the frame rail running front to back on both sides; that's what the jacking points are cut into. I just position my stand alongside the jack and lower onto the stand. Never had an issue. Good luck with the paint project. All the best, Quinn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilmor Posted July 1, 2014 Report Share Posted July 1, 2014 I jack mine 2007 up and then place floor jackstands under the lift points shown on this "Pre-Delivery Procedure" http://home.comcast.net/~kjobrien/Vehicle_Lift_Points__S7Z06A12.pdf Also see additional info on this thread: http://www.teamshelby.com/forums/index.php/topic/62211-2011-jacking-lifting-instructions-from-ford/?hl=jackstand&do=findComment&comment=1086888 I'm not positive that all S197 years are the same.
