Newbie Question - FJ62 Jacking points? (1 Viewer)

[collk22]

I feel like a moron asking, but what are the recommended jacking points for the FJ62? Axles under the springs? I'm thinking side of the road tire change type scenario.

I'm trying to baseline my tools/knowledge on the FJ and realized I've never owned a vehicle with solid axles front and rear. On my DD you use the frame (just behind the front wheel) and the rear axle - close to the wheel, underneath where the springs are mounted.

I don't have the owners manual and searching mud wasn't super helpful. Thanks for the help.

Under the axle is best for changing the tire, if you jack on the frame, the tire drops and you have to go way up.
I usually go under the spring, there is more to hold the jack from sliding.
