    Floor Jack

Hi, I’m Mike from 1A Auto. We’ve been selling auto parts for over 30 years!

We've got our SQ5 supported on a two post lift. If you were doing this on the ground, on the floor jack, you'd need to use the floor jack. There's only four points on this vehicle you can lift it on, and it's right here where we have our lift arms.

Say for example, you want to lift this corner of the vehicle, you'd have to come in here with your floor jack, jack up in this area here. You can actually see there's a cut out in the frame. You put your floor jack in here, lift up the vehicle, and then put a supporting jack stand underneath it for whatever side you're doing. If you want to have both wheels off, you'd do both sides and the front.

We'll come back to the rear. Same thing, you'd have to use a floor jack where this is opening in the plastics. This is the reinforced part of the frame reel that can be lifted on. We'll lift this up with the floor jack and put a supporting jacks in underneath it. You'd do the same for both sides if you want to raise the rear of the vehicle. You could put four jack stands and raise all four corners of the vehicle up off the ground. But that's how you raise and support this vehicle.
