rear jack points??

I searched and got nothing.

I couldn't find the point to put the jack to raise the rear wheels. There was no marking or anything. Do you just put it under the ledge on the edge of the underbody?

Thanks
Nima

There is a crossmember by the differential that has a round indentation in the middle of it. There is one on each side. That's where you want to put your jack stands.

As far as jacking up the car, there is a round protruding part to the differential right in the center. That's where you put the jack.
Don't jack it up on the sides! It will crush the side skirts!
