Re: Harbor Freight Tools: got the 3 ton floor jack
Snow when you say frame do you mean the frame rails? The two parallel rails
that go from front to back?

Re: Harbor Freight Tools: got the 3 ton floor jack
You can jack anywhere on the frame rails between the front leaf spring mount
and the control arm mount. There is a slight slope in the frame rails near the control arm mount but shouldn't present a problem unless you are on uneven ground to exaggerate the slope. But then again, you wouldn't be so crazy as to jack up a vehicle on uneven ground. The only time you need to jack from the frame is when you need to unload the weight from the suspension; shock/spring replacement, fuel pump accessibility, tailpipe replacement etc. If you are doing brakes, tires, fluid change and almost everything else, jack up from the axles. I can get the wheels off the ground in two pumps with a basic floor jack on the axle. At full extension, I can have the tires about 8" off the ground. My jack doesn't reach my frame rails at full extension. http://members.rogers.com/cherokee-ltd/DSC02052.JPG Hope that helps. -Brian "Wblane" <wblane@aol.combotizer> wrote in message news:20040915154529.03232.00000691@mb-m19.aol.com... : Snow when you say frame do you mean the frame rails?
