To jack up one of these Nissan Altimas, you can see we've got a lift underneath. If you go right down, you can see on the body there are two indentations there. That's where you want to place a jack if you're going to place it under the body. That's also where you would want to place jack stands.
What you can do in the rear here is you could actually use a floor jack and jack up right under this cradle right here. Then you would want to support the body of the car with safety jack stands under here. There's the same thing in the front on each side. You can probably just barely see the indentations there, right there. My lift is kind of blocking them.
If you wanted to jack the front, you could place a jack right here or back here on these reinforcements. Jack up one side and put a safety stand, again, where the lift is, where the indentations are.
