Default Bust those engine mounts..98 xjr..

Hello hello :

Well rookie mistake, lift the car by putting jack under flywheel and puncher those engine mounts..

Question is : best location for jack stand to lift the whole car to perform atf replacement. And since I need to work on those mounts too, can I do that job on jack stand? Or it need to be on a lift.

Thanks in advance..

Amir

There are 4 jacking points on the bottom of your car. It's where those black square plugs are. You can lift there and place jack stands there as well. You can do the atf as well as the engine mounts on jack stands but, if you have access to a lift that's the better option.

Found this thread, the front and rear jacking points are shown here.


As far as those engine mounts go, they can be tricky doing on the ground. If you have access to a hoist, it will make your life so much easier. Doing it on the ground will most likely take longer.
