Default 2015 xj351 front suspension replacement

I started getting all the front suspension parts that I ordered and I am going to change everything next week and I am wondering what the proper way to jack up my car is so I can take off the front wheels and change my control arms if any one has any input on this I would appreciate it

Dmt913, from personal experience, do the lifting in stages. Jack up one side 6 inches, support, jack up the other side 10 inches, support, jack the first side up another 6-8 inches, support, move to the second side and level out the car. If you do it as 1 big step, the suspension computer may see the car as having a fault and it will cause the suspension to do funny things and make the car not ride correctly.

If possible raise the car using the positions in your owners manual.

Note there are also arrows on the lower sill's that point to the support points. Hard to see but they are there! I had to look too as I did not believe anything was there!



Right below the blue arrow you can see it molded into the plastic.
