Jacking & Hoisting: OUTERBODY

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 1988 Volkswagen Vanagon. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

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. If floor jack or hoist is employed, extreme care should be exercised to avoid damaging the outer body shell.

NOTE: Illustration(s) in this article are not intended to represent the exact structure of each vehicle's frame, underbody or body outline. They are presented only to give the mechanic some point of reference.
