2 post lift jacking points?

[parb]

I read through the manual to see where the jacking points are?
They are on the axle...?
That can't possible be the right spot for a 2 post lift?
Any better recommendations?

On the chassis rail. Furthest distance apart whilst still on flat section

Yep, on the flats of the chassis rails as @Mudnut said.
The first time you do it pay close attention to the vertical clearance between the arms and your dissent sliders. You may need to wind the pads up to provide some clearance under the sliders. I have the factory side steps and my agent has to use height extensions to stop the arms from hitting the steps before the pads contact the chassis.

I forgot about sliders and steps. I used my 2 post lift to hold the rock sliders in place to bolt them on. Have not checked clearance now that they are in place.

@Mudnut ,@Clark Kent, good info thanks.

If you could pm/share pics of the positions, I’ll add them to a future edition of the manual.

Cheers Steve

Following with interest, I have a scissor lift and can’t lift the Ineos with it because i can’t get access with my pads onto the chassis. I’m almost at the point of getting a subframe fabricated that I can bolt to the scissor lift.

When I have done it Ive used the two points where large bolts protrude through on some flat plate sections.. not a good description i know. Its the same points the dealerships use.

Thanks all,

I don't have a lift but we have a company near where I live where I can rent a bay with a lift. I'm about to put in my new rival gas team skid plate and it requires me to take off and replace the transfer case skid plate as it's incompatible with the gas tank skid plate. Rival sent me a replacement.

Its just a bit too cold to spend a few hours on the asphalt on my driveway right now so I'm going to rent the bay for it. But never used 2 post lift before and I wanted to make sure I don't make a mistake even though I'm sure that the business will oversee how I'm operating the lift.
