I've been jacking my car up w/ a hydraulic under the lower arm and then supporting it w/ jackstands on the jack points on the sides... but it tilts when I do this!! ARRGHH!

Is there any way to jack up the car from the front/rear from the center of the car so it doesn't shift on lifting?? PLEASE HELP... I don't want to get crushed...

Try using the rad. support. You can put the stands under the control arms.

You mean right in the middle of that front crossmember thing where there's a flat, raised portion w/ a small hole in it...? Thanks crex

Yup, that's the place...I jack lots of honda off there with no problems, Civics, CRX's, Integras, Accords...there's plenty of beef there to take the weight...and if you want to jack up the rear do it off the tow hook, but watch out b/c it's slightly off center back there..

Oh that's not the way we do it at Sonic's place... usually, he just yells "LIFT!" and we all lift and hold while crawls under the car and does his magic! or else we find a handy tree with a come-along!

LOL... sorry man, but that just sounded TOO funny/sexual...

Thanks for the info guys!!

Hey man, hondas need lovin too!

We have to find a replacement for max for lifting the car though, he's so old I think he's going to get a Hernia one of these days...
