misterfixit Posted December 9, 2013 Report Share Posted December 9, 2013 When you rotate your tires do you use the pinch weld lift points or are there recommended points for a floor jack? I have searched and can not find an answer except to use the pinch weld points. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akirby Posted December 9, 2013 Report Share Posted December 9, 2013 Pinch weld points. Get an adapter that fits around the pinch weld. Like this one: http://www.ebay.com/bhp/floor-jack-adapter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misterfixit Posted December 9, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 9, 2013 Thanks for your reply. I have seen those. I was just curious if there are other recommended lift points and if the pinch weld points were just for changing flat tires. Will the pinch weld points stand up to repeated use? Also where do you place jack stands when needed? Do you use your spare tire instead of a jack stand when rotating your tires? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akirby Posted December 9, 2013 Report Share Posted December 9, 2013 Those are the only recommended points. I do use the spare when rotating just because it's easier than getting a jack stand in next to the floor jack. I'm sure you could get away with other suspension points but Ford doesn't recommend it.
