rear jack point ASAP

[93accord2dr]

I need to know the place to put my jack in the rear, I know the jackpoints on the sides, but isn't there one on the back?

[slammed4th gen]

just use the support bar in the back where the lower control arms bolt to.. i forget what its called but thats what i always use.

[93accord2dr]

All the way back there?

What about that bump thing, that's in between the jackpoints, very close to the bumper.

ive used that bump thing. only problem is that its sorta easy for the car to slide off of the top of the jack as you raise it up. but if you wanna try it, it holds the weight fine.

Aight. Cool. I read somewhere earlier that jacking from the support bar which the control arms are bolted on to is a bad idea.

Edit: Found this:

There is a crossmember in the back (in line with the rear wheels) that I use to jack the whole rear of the car up. (just beyond the spare tire well). It helps if your jack has a rubber pad on it so it won't gouge the metal.

Thats the same place I use for the rear...




That image you circled is the tow hook, which is in the front of the car.

actually thats a diagram of the rear of the car... i think maybe 90 differed from 91-93? but that looks to be the same location/size/shape as that hump we were talking about before, its just made of welded wire, instead of moulded sheet metal.
