Jack Points?

Hello,

Does anyone know where the front and rear jack points are on this vehicle? I am not talking about the side jack points.

I used a floor jack to raise mine several weeks ago to swap my wheels, if you look in your owners manual they show you where the "take up brackets" are located and you should use these hard points for jacking. Since the jack points are odd in shape I placed a folded towel in between the jack point and the jack plate, remember the ground has to be leveled and parking brake set or opposite corner wheel chocked to prevent roll.
