    Where do you guys jack up your car?

    I know the factory points at the pinch weld near the markers for jacking, but just curious if people do other places. I am obviously holding harmless everyone with their opinions (only) on this topic! I just know that point on my wife's Cayenne for instance is useless, you have to use a subframe point to really change out a tire, thankfully the Cayenne's front subframe is huge and accessible with the skid pad/belly pan still on...not quite like our car.

    ...under the body, just inside of the pinch welds.

    The next thing you want are these...

    ...you place the jack pad on your floor jack, lift it to the height of the stand, then slide the stand around your jack and under the pad, and lower the pad onto the jack. Done.
