Related components are located in the steering column, center console, dashboard, in the dashboard above the glove box, in the front seats, in the roof side, and around the floor.

Raise the lift a few inches, and rock the vehicle gently to be sure it is firmly supported. 3. Raise the lift to its full height, and inspect the vehicle support points for solid contact with the lift blocks. Safety Stands To support the vehicle on safety stands, use the same support points as for a vehicle lift. Always use safety stands when working on or under any vehicle that is supported only by a jack. Floor Jack 1. When lifting the front of the vehicle, set the parking brake. When lifting the rear of the vehicle, put the shift lever in P. 2. Block the wheels that are not being lifted. 3.
