might be a silly question but. do you use trolley jacks used one on mine yesterday and it dug into the lip under the car really anoyed what do you fellas do cheers

where the little hole is in the lip where you would put the wind up jack, is where you want to jack up mate as the thicker bits next to it will just cave
trolly jacks are fine but the bigger the better and easier lol

Dont put it there dude,

look under the car and you will see like a metal run about 2-3 wide and about 1.5m long running from the front to half way, jack it on that as its MUCH stronger ..

My way apparantly is the wrong way, but its the safest way as also it doesnt bend your sill..

Correct much better on the chasis rails than the sills, will just bend them
