lewisd Posted December 19, 2009 Share Posted December 19, 2009 Hey everyone, looking to jack front of car (99 legacy wagon) up onto jack stands. Other than side points behind front wheel the manual doesn't say any other spots. I was thinking of using my floor jack at that center point between front wheels behind oil pan and then slide jack stands to the side points behind front wheels. Or should I just lift by the side and then snug the jack stand next to it. I'm doing the timing belt and items mentioned by others and noticed the oil pan appears to be leaking and the drivers side valve cover a little bit. trying to give myself a little room underneath. Any suggestions? I've got plenty of time with this snow blizzard outside. looks like my seals are delayed for the weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heartless Posted December 19, 2009 Share Posted December 19, 2009 use the jack from the front center - at the crossmember, behind the oil pan, and put your jack stands in behind the wheelwells as you described. just make sure you are centered before raising the car.

subaru360 Posted December 21, 2009 Share Posted December 21, 2009 That plate behind the oil pan is there for jacking the car up. Use it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
