Raising Front Of Vehicle

NOTE: For some repair operations it may be necessary to use a jack to support the engine under the sump. In this case, a block of wood should be used on the jack to protect the sump.

Position the cup of the hydraulic arm under the center of the front body crossmember assembly. See Figure .
Use jack to raise front road wheels to enable safety stands to be installed under the front end of each longitudinal member. See Figure .
Carefully lower jack until vehicle sits securely on safety stands.
Before working on the underside of a vehicle recheck the stability of the vehicle on the stands.
Use the reverse procedure when removing a vehicle from stands.
