pinch welds How many of you jack your cars by the pinch welds. I have BMR boxed sfc's, just not installed yet. I'm always under my car for something and I jack by either the pinch weld's or sub-frame and both are starting to look like ***. The pinch welds are beyond repair-bent, and folded under, paint flaking off and the works. Any opinions, any FIX? Thanks for input, I work as a tech for acura and every car I work on has designated spots for lifting, so when I come home to my car it makes me sick!

I always jack my car by the rearend, the engine cradle, or the front part of the unibody stamped subframe. It is almost impossile to avoid damage unless you use a cushion between the jack and the undercarriage. Four-post lifts have rubber padding to protect the undercarriage.
