Vehicle may be raised on single or twin-post swiveling arm or ramp-type drive hoists. If using single post hoist, ensure lifting arms, pads or ramps are positioned at proper lifting points and adequate underbody clearance is maintained. To ensure underbody clearance, place wooden blocks between lifting pads and frame at lift points. (Scheme 7)
If vehicle is to be raised on a twin-post hoist use caution not to damage suspension, rear axle cover and/or steering linkage components. The front end adapters should be positioned carefully to ensure maximum contact under center of lower suspension arms or spring supports as near wheels as possible.
Rear suspension hoist adapters (forks), should be placed under rear axle tubes. These adapters must not interfere with lower control arm mounting brackets or hydraulic brake tubes. Do not allow hoisting forks to contact axle carrier casting rear cover or front stabilizer bar or brackets as damage may occur.
