Yup, there are jack points front and rear...actually 4 in the rear 2 in the front, at the way way back of the car there's 2 more very high up.

I'd never be able to slide a jack under my car with these though! Nice idea however.

I guess I've only ever used a floor-jack on the middle, then use jack-stands front and rear. I think those little box things infront of the rear tires aren't jack points though (I've seen an aweful lot of them folded in on other 44's I've looked at)... *I* don't use them at least. Fear of having the car fall on me I guess..

Thanks though..

Brian, where do you put jack stands in the rear?

Those little box things are indeed jack points.

They are jack points, but I wouldn't support my car with them. I too have seem them fold over. I use only the center point. When installing jackstands I go under what works as a framerail, and on the meat of the torsion car carrier in the rear.

How about something for jackstands.
There is fork which goes nicely on the torsion bar carrier but on the front could use something similar which fits the forks and front jacking points.

Something to slide up in the hole of the jack point that was thin and possibly upside-down U shaped to go over the jack stand. Hmmm...nice idea. I'll tell Ken.
