Hi everyone,
I do my own tyre rotations and have recently read that I SHOULDN'T be lifting the rear of the vehicle from the Rear axle as there is a risk of bending it. Is this true? I find that the axle is always the easiest and most straight forward place to lift the rear up. I also place the jack stands on the rear axle.. should these be somewhere else instead? (I've used this method and haven't dented/bent anything yet.
