Default alittle help here...

About to install motor mounts/LT headers and o/r Y pipe. Where is the best place to jack the whole car up (front and rear) and how high? Found good write up on here but it doesn't state either of those. Thanks guys!

I pic the points on the subframe that are notched out and supposed to be used when raising the car. Just check your owners manual or if you dont have one download one off the internet (there free just google owners manual download) and see. The best way i can describe is the notches cut out right behind the front wheels and right before the rear ones. It helps to see but make sure you hit it and see that its solid and metal.

If your meaning just where is the best place to do it for working on exhaust i would still pick that just be carefull that your not jerking the car around or stuff, obviously the best way would be a lift but not everyone has access. I use the 4 jack locations
