Hi, I'm Mike from 1A Auto. I hope this how-to video helps you out, and next time you need parts for your vehicle, think of 1AAuto.com. Thanks.

In this video, we're going to show you how to use jack and jack stands to raise and support a vehicle. On this particular video we're working on this 1998 Toyota Camry, and this is the same for this generation Camry, as well as many other vehicles.

Install your jack under the vehicle, line it up with the pinch weld, jack the vehicle up high enough that you can get a stand underneath, making sure you have enough clearance to remove your tire or do whatever you have to do under the vehicle, install your jack stand onto this uni-body frame rail under the vehicle.

If you need to work on the rear of the vehicle, put your jack stand underneath and just ahead of the lower control arm here right by the tow point. Once the weight is on your stands, give the vehicle a little shake, make sure that they're on there secure. Repeat these steps on the opposite side. Make sure that your bring the vehicle up so that when it sits on the other set of jack stands, the vehicle will be level. Now lower your vehicle onto the stands on this side.

Jack up on your pinch weld, be sure that where you jack isn't going to interfere with your ability to remove the jack stands. Bring the vehicle up until it's off the stands, remove your stands from under the vehicle. With the stands clear, lower the vehicle. Move to the other side, and repeat these steps. You can remove your jack the rest of the way.
