I would like to ask all DC2 owners, its it ok to jack up the car from the front and rear points?
1 - under the front radiator support?
2 - under the rear tow loop?

just wanted to know if those 2 points are ok to use as jacking points.

Apart from the usual jacking points under the door and rear quarter panel, these are the only other suggested points:

Hint: Don't use the tow hook at the front of the car for jacking, only the rear one ;)

The front tow hook is really flimsy.. use the correct front jacking point and you'll be fine.

For your own safety. If you going underneath the car make sure you use stands, don't trust your jack.
