► Rear Jacking Point

hl0m4n · 10-21-2018, 10:57 PM

where is the rear jacking point for our m6s?

the manual states by the diff but this only applies to the regular models without the finned differential cover we have on the ///m.

don't take my comment as fully accurate, but I've always understood it that you can jack it on the rear arms on the suspension next to each wheel.

That said, I never jack it on the rear. That's a clean underside btw if that's your car!

Yeah,that car looks brandy new ,look at the inner wheel barrels and the tires, and that exhaust seen no heat yet

,If your taking the wheels off just do one at a time and use the jack pad ,if you have to get under use a nice set of ramps is safest bet

I'm in the same boat as you're. I don't see a safe spot for the front and rear to lift so I can put the car on 4 jack stands. After searching high and low for a solution I found the product below. It's called safe jack.

I think that is that best solution to lift the M6 GC. It's on the expensive side but still cheaper, much more mobile/light than other solutions.

If you go to that website or youtube and search for the safe jack demo, you would see how it works. I'm not in any ways affiliate with this company. Just something I will buy to use it for my car.
