Suggestion

Just be careful when lowering onto the jack stands as the car will move forward (so you have to place the stands forward of where you may think) - just lower the car slowly and keep checking the position of the stands.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

12 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

My right rear rim is a bit of sorts. Can I jack the car up from the front right jacking point enough that it will lift the right rear so I can put a jack stand under right rear jack point. I get nervous leaving the car up on a jack for a couple days, I would rather a stand.

POST 2Original post

Push the jack under the car a little bit more and use the cross member to lift right rear. I can lift the front from the rear jack point, but if I remember correctly, because of the weight of the motor, lifting from the front jack point will not lift the rear. Choose a point carefully on the rear cross member of the right side. I've done that several times to put a jack stand under there. Or, alternatively, I have lifted the rear at the jack point and put the jack stand under the cross member where it meets the rear suspension. Good solid point.

POST 3Original post

Put a jack stand under the rear cross member, remove jack, then place another stand under the jacking point.

POST 4Original post

Why don't you just use the right rear jacking point to lift the right rear? Always makes me nervous to lift a wheel using the other wheel's jacking point, body getting torqued and what not. BTW, I'm sure you know this but I'll say it anyway, NEVER EVER get under the car with only a jack supporting the car's weight. A couple of weeks ago in a neighboring town a guy was killed when he got crushed due to his hydraulic jack failing with him under the car. Just sayin.

POST 5 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I don�t want to leave the car on just a jack for a few days. If it decides to drop, I�m screwed.

POST 7Original post

You can lift the entire rear end of the car from the center of the rear crossmember. Put your jack-stands under both rear jacking points. Just be careful when lowering onto the jack stands as the car will move forward (so you have to place the stands forward of where you may think) - just lower the car slowly and keep checking the position of the stands.

POST 8 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Figured I would blow up the spare, jack from jack stand and put spare on. Start putting air in spare, not sure if normal but started taking this strange shape. Abort that. Ugh. Go to take amp out, can�t get wiring off. Ill try the cross member. Thanks

POST 9Original post

use the scissor jack at the rear lifting point.

POST 10Original post

Quotes source post: 16490571

That's the way I do it, but I have to drive the car onto 2 x 4s first because my jack isn't low enough. Just remember to put the 2 x 4s back in place under the tires before you lower the car again. One of these days I'm going to paint or tape a center line on the crossmember to make it easier to position the jack.

POST 11Original post

+1 on using your spare or just use a set of stands - all the points mentioned above will work. The rear sub frame is a very solid place to hold the rear up from and has several flat sections where a stand can rest nicely.

POST 12 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I ended up using the spare and left the Porsche jack in place just Incase the 18 year old tire decides to go. Thanks everyone.
