So I recently saw a post saying that jacking our cars up from the rear axle isn't suggested. So my question is, what is suggested?

Thanks in advance

 

I jack from the pumpkin BUT you gotta use a board or have a jack that has a rubber mat or you can damage the rear cover or have the car slide off the jack..........scary!!

 

Check the OM.

 

I'm pretty sure we've been using the pumpkin since 1964...

 

This again.. everybody will give you different opinions on it.. Just read the old thread, you don't need to start a new one for this crap... pumpkin jackers vs non-pumpkin jackers

 

vs pumpkin chuckers!

 

^^ I want

 

Ok thanks for the help guys. Sorry for creating a unnecessary thread, I'll do a bit more research and see what i can find.

 

^^lol

 

These days cars have better, designated jacking points. Doesn't mean you can't use the pumpkin, but it doesn't mean the pumpkin is ideal. I personally don't use it on modern cars. On some older, classic rigs, I do.
