I just wanted to clarify, being a Honda driver where jacking up an entire car is easy (trolley jack on front centre and rear jackpoint being the tow bar).
Having had a look at the underside of the wifes CX-5 theres quiet alot of plastic skid-plates for protection so i wonder how i can jack the car up and place jack stands?
I was thinking, if i wanted to put my jack stands on the pinch welds on the outer sides of the car (blue circles), is it possible to jack up the car's 4 corners from each wheels control arm? (the red circles).
Would i bend anything by doing this? i'd be using a block of wood in between just to even the load a little also.
Could i potentially bend something and affect wheel alignment?
Or if anyone has done it an easier way, please advise, would love to know =)
Anyone have a suggestion? Could just drive it up Ramps, but am very curious how to go about it if i was to use jack and stands.
