Hi all ,I would like to know suggested axle stand points for LC-LJ ,can't be under the diff housing as I'll need to lower this at some point ,I will be using four .Trying to avoid damage to the underside or the car ,are the chassis rails ok for this?Thanks Paul.

If I needed movement of the rear axle, then I always used to place the axle stands under the chassis rail in the inverted V created where the front trailing arm mount joins the rail. (Fortunate to have the luxury of a hoist these days). Don't forget the bit of carpet if you have good paint to protect :-)

 

Cheers,

As above, I generally shove them directly infront of the LCA moutning point, in the nice v, and just behind of the front x memeber rear mounting bolt thingo's when im doing that kinda work.
