Title: Jacking point Post by: Mitka on 04 December, 2022, 11:21:22 AM Hi, hope your all well.
It’s a silly question, but what’s the best jacking points for normal floor jack and to place your stands on a Berlina and coupe? Title: Re: Jacking point Post by: Richard Fridd on 04 December, 2022, 11:46:02 AM I have made a pair of wooden cradles to fit under the ends of the de- dion tube. These can accomodate a low saddle trolley jack and also have castors which enable the cradles to be used as dollies for moving the car around the garage. I would avoid a trolley jack in the centre of the de-dion tube incase of a slip which could result in the transaxle being damaged by the jack.
Wonderful looking car. Richard Title: Re: Jacking point Post by: frankxhv773t on 04 December, 2022, 01:44:16 PM This is what the owners' handbook suggests for the wheel changing jack. For axle stands I would go under the outer ends of the De Dion tube at the back and under the front subframe mounting points just behind the front suspension or under the inner end of the front suspension wishbones.
Do you have an owner's handbook or would you loke me to scan a copy for you? Frank Title: Re: Jacking point Post by: Mitka on 04 December, 2022, 07:13:03 PM Thanks guys!
