NOTE: If you are going to remove heavy components such as suspension or the fuel tank from the rear of the vehicle, first support the front of the vehicle with tall safety stands. When substantial weight is removed from the rear of the vehicle, the center of gravity can change and cause the vehicle to tip forward on the hoist. Frame Hoist Position the hoist lift blocks (A), on safety stands, under the vehicle's front support points (B) and rear support points (C). Raise the hoist a few inches, and rock the vehicle gently to be sure it is firmly supported. Raise the hoist to full height, and inspect the lift points for solid contact with the lift blocks. |
