Hi all

I need to put my car up on all four stands when the weather starts to improve. I have safely carried out this evolution many times now.

I usually put the rear stands under the square section jacking points.

The near side one is looking slightly deformed, no rust present, but a slight crease on one side of the square section.

My question is can I jack up on the rear axle where the torsion bars are fitted or any alternative?

Any advice would be great.

Mark

That's where I always put the stands under the alloy end plates on the torsion tube
