Hello Fellow Jazz owners!
My recent purchase is a 2006 Honda Jazz 1.2.
I also bought some jack stands like these:
https://www.amazon.co.uk/AmazonBasics-Steel-Jack-Stands-Capacity/dp/B0753PM57VI want to put the car on 4 of these, to give piece of mind and stability when working.
I know the manual states only the 4 scissor jack / pinch weld reinforced / jacking points are suitable for the jack the car comes with.
I dont really understand how to put the car onto the stands while you are using the jack.
Do you think I could buy a rubber/plastic cover for the jack stans, and just jack it up on the non reinforced sills 'next' to the reinforced point, then lower the car onto the jack stands (and jack stand rubber covers to protect the metal). Maybe I could use a rubber jack stand cover with the jack to further spread the weight on the non reinforced sill its lifting?
I really dont see how else to safely get it onto the stands?
My question is one that has already been asked, but I couldn't find a definitive answer.
Im a 'by the book mechanic' and I like when things go smoothly and as the designers sort of intended. Im a beginner.
How did Honda allow for people to raise the car?
I'm wondering at what locations the garages that service these cars place the arms one their car lifts? And do they put them in correct and safe locations?
Regards
