Hoisting

CAUTION: Incorrect hoisting can damage steering linkage components and suspension components.

On two-post hoists, place the adapters under the No. 1 crossmember. Make sure the adapters do not rest on the steering linkage. If the adapters are placed under the crossmember, place a wood block 5 x 10 cm (2 x 4 inches) on the hoist channel between the adapters to prevent damage to the struts.
