Hi, I’m Mike from 1A Auto. We’ve been selling auto parts for over 30 years!

We've got a Subaru up here on a two post lift, but if you're going to do this in your driveway, you can use a floor jack. Roll it under here, and put your floor jack right here and lift up on the vehicle, then put up your two jack stands.

There's a cut out here with a couple notches and the frame rail, basically right where this is, the lift pad. You put your jack stand right there and do the same on the other side. That's how you can lift the front of the car. Then go to the back of the car. You can come in with your floor jack. You can put it right under here under the differential, lift it up and put your jack stands right here in the frame rail. There's a couple notches on both sides. That's right where you want to put your jack stands, and that's how you do the rear of the car.
