Jacking Up a Toyota HiLux
To jack up a Toyota HiLux, it is important to locate the proper jacking points to ensure safe and effective lifting. Here are some guidelines:
1. Front Jacking Points: One common jacking point for the front of the HiLux is the center of the cross member that runs behind the front differential. This is similar to the jacking point used for lifting a Surf, which is similar to the HiLux.
2. Rear Jacking Points: The rear jacking points can vary depending on the specific model and generation of the HiLux. In some cases, the rear seat base on the passenger side can be lifted to access the jack and jacking points. However, it is recommended to consult the vehicle’s manual or contact a Toyota dealership for the specific jacking points for your HiLux model.
It is important to note that using proper jack stands or other support devices is crucial when lifting a vehicle. Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions and exercise caution to ensure your safety and the safety of others.
Please keep in mind that the information provided is based on general guidelines and may vary depending on the specific model and generation of the Toyota HiLux. It is always recommended to consult the vehicle’s manual or contact a Toyota dealership for accurate and up-to-date information.
