Jacking a Vehicle

Safely Jacking a Vehicle:
- Make sure it is on an even surface with no bumps in the ground.
- Make sure the jack is safe to use.
- Make sure the jack is straight in line with the car (front to back).
- Find a stable jacking point on the car e.g rear axle.





Jacking up a vehicle correctly is very important because if it is not set up correctly, it could do damage to the car, or worse, you or someone else.
