When Using Floor Jack
WARNING:

Never apply jack against suspension parts (i.e., stabilizer, etc.) or vehicle floor, or it may get deformed.
In raising front or rear vehicle end off the floor by jacking, be sure to put the jack against the center portion of the front axle housing (1) or rear axle housing (2).
To perform service with either front or rear vehicle end jacked up, be sure to place safety stands (1) under chassis frame so that body is securely supported. And then check to ensure that chassis frame does not slide on safety stands (1) and the vehicle is held stable for safety’s sake.
