I wanted to know what your experiences have been with jack points.
I no longer to jack the front of the car at the rails where the Saab jack goes when I started to see the rails bending and the floor being pushed up. So then I stated jacking the car from the front jack point in the center of the car under the radiator. Well now I can see that front point showing about a half inch of deflection in the frame! After destroying a ramp with this car I swore i wouldn't get under one again (getting the 5 speed up there can be tricky enough).
Help me out, I've jacked things up enough.
