Frame Contact Hoist

On Corvette, position frame contact hoist on frame rails, forward of rear wheels and rearward of front wheels. See Fig 1. On all others, hoist adapters must contact vehicle in specified areas. See Fig 2-Fig 7 . Adapters must be positioned to distribute load and support vehicle in a stable manner. DO NOT allow lift pads to contact exhaust system components.

CAUTION: If removing rear axle, fuel tank, spare tire or liftgate using single-post hoist, anchor vehicle to hoist. Place jack stands under vehicle, or add weight on rear end of vehicle to prevent tipping when center of gravity changes.
