Jacking & Hoisting: OUTERBODY

Those points designated on the outline of the body were specifically designed to facilitate the use of the vehicle's own jack. These jacking points are indicated by circular dots on the outline of the body. See Fig 1-Fig 4 sample illustration. If floor jack or hoist is employed, extreme care should be exercised to avoid damaging the outer body shell.
