Rear jacking points?

Post by bluezero000 »

Has anyone used jackstands in the rear of the car? Volvospeed shows only the jacking points in the front. Thanks for any advice.

I place my stands under the heads of the large bolts in front of the rear wheels that connect the rear trailing arms to the body. That area is reinforced for lifting.
