    Would it be ok to do the following.
    1. Place the adapter as shown above, between the jackpoints.
    2. Lift the car.
    3. place stands beneath the jackpoints.
    4. Do the same on the other side

    You can crush the pinch weld. That attachment looks like it would prevent that.

    Not crushing the pinch weld is exactly what that part is designed for.



    Wow... that was a poorly constructed sentence

    I've got a lot less horsepower - luckily they are Japanese horses - usually in better shape and more motivated.

    Place that frame rail adapter directly under the mirror. That is almost the exact center of mass. Then lift and put a stand under each corner jack point.

    Sweet this works on an nc1 as well. Looks like I will be placing an order soon. It really sucked having to jack up the nc today without a tool like this.
