How to properly jack up your car
1.) Remove oil drain bolt
2.) Forcefully shift without using the clutch
3.) Always downshift at too high an RPM
4.) Take it to a dirt road filled with potholes, preferably an old town road
5.) Ride until you can't no more
Your car should now be pretty jacked up
lmao
Jacked up also mainly means getting yelled at or being chewed out in the army.
Not what you said.
I'm going to be doing some work on my 86 next week and literally opened RUclips to find a video on the jack points for these cars. Perfect timing!
Actually, the jacking point is on the sub frame directly BEHIND the pinch welds and not the pinch welds themselves. Take a look at the scissor jack provided by Subaru. There is a groove cut into it (4:00) so that it does not contact the pinch welds, allowing the vehicle to be lifted by the sub frame jacking point..
Is it still okay to put your jack stands under them?
@@KingPeaceus: You should always use jack stands anytime you work under a raised vehicle. But I wouldn't (and don't) rest the entire weight of the vehicle on the pinch welds. They are not designed to support it. The pinch welds are part of the fender/body not the sub frame. Will the pinch welds support the vehicle? Yes, but you run the risk of damaging them. The weight of the vehicle should rest on the sub frame not the pinch welds.
This is one of those “actually” moments that we really needed! 😂 thank you
I feel like in the next 5 years this will become their most viewed video; especially when the 2020 Toyota 86 comes out and the price of older 86s tank down.
This was definitely posted pre COVID car shortage haha.
That’s why I’m here lmao
Jack stands should not go anywhere near pinch welds. The U shape at the top puts pressure in all the wrong places. Jack stands should be on the frame or under suspension anchor points.
Don’t forget to put spare wheels and tires underneath for an additional safety measure. Very handy and good video.
Today we are gonna learn how to jack up your car
But first, jack up your car.
(that was mighty car mods joke)
Protip- check the pinchwelds on a used car to see if the owner did the work, or if a shop did work mostly :)
How would you know
Zoshy they’ll be worn down if someone does the work themselves since jack stands progressively wear them out. That being said, who says the owner doesn’t own a lift or similar type of device?
Mechanic shops fuck them up too
Yea that's true that being said i enjoy the piece of mind knowing i did the work correctly and not rushed. If someone ever tried to use that as a point to negotiate I'd tell them to suck it lol
Great video, exactly what I was looking for. Went ahead and got the Cusco ramps.
Just bought an 86... Imma need this video 😂
Do people just bend their pinch welds when you put them on jack stands? I milled a slot out of 2x4 to go on either side of the pinch welds.
I haven't bent them yet and have had it up on jack stands at the pinch welds. Now it will bend the seam if you place the jack stands anywhere besides the pinch weld, don't ask me how i know....>:(
Your's is the correct method for jacking to avoid damage to the pinch welds. Although, you may be at risk of cracking the 2X4s which may present a problem. Rubber jacking pads with a groove cut in them work well.
This also works well for our cars

Are there alternative points where I can put the jack stand? My side skirt does not give enough clearance to place the jack stand. Cutting out the area might not be a good solution either...
Old video but very helpful! And I need ramps for sure, my 23 GR86 is way too low with my lip even at stock height lol
The flat rear diff won't be damaged? It is a small surface area
Hey man your videos are awesome my engine bay is very dirty and it’s ugly tooo look at, I want to clean it in car wash using engine clean mode, but I am afraid that water could damage the engine and stuff. So can you make a video how to properly wash the engine and clean it so it can shine like the first time you got it! That would be appreciated if you do.
i needed this 3 years ago before i munched my pinch welds like an idiot. unfortunately but fortunately it'll never happen again lmao.
Can i ask the lenght of your floor jack? I have to buy one and i would like to jack up the rear like you did :)
Is something like 70-80 cm good or do i need the Long version which is 93 cm?
Thanks a lot :)
Question if I am only doing back work like switch exhaust tips can I just pick up the back
What extra things could you put under the car with Jack stands, too support even more.
I’ve seen people use wood
My 1st one of these. Good to know.
Thank you thomas
Can a regular low profile jack (not the long one) reach the front sub frame when accessed to the front?
My pinch welds are bent and destroyed Subaru said that was normal when I took it in. Still work to jack up the car.
Use jack stand pads that have a groove for the pinch weld to sit in.
@@jacobfathal2230 They are already bent dude
Yeah, it's normal when you jack up your car incorrectly.
Are you guys getting any more of those tail lights??
Any word on em? Im still waiting for mine
lol bottle jack on pinch weld with room for jack stand and bottle jack on the actual lift points
Does the 2nd gen BRZ have the same jack point in this video?
What’s the really loud sound the lift makes while it’s lifting the car up? First time I heard it I thought something snapped
Those clacking sounds are locks, which is part of the safety system on the lift :)
What i do is i use the flimsy scissor jack to raise the car a lil bit so i can fit my low profile jack in
just curious as too what color gold the rims on this 86 are??
Can also use a brick if you dont have ramps
My86 didn’t come with emergency Jack
That catback looks cool, could you provide more more info. ?
We'll be release more info soon
What are those bronze rims ad what are the specs on them?
What is that black ramp he use? Definitely not cusco

@@IDpoppacap $270. Bwahahahaaa.
I brought a BRZ recently, but the pinch welds are all bent and spread apart. What do I do in my situation? dont think they are safe to use
did you end up finding any results? i have one pinch weld that’s bent and im not sure if you can bent it back?
What if my pinch welds are bent upward?
then you might be a tad to low.... lol jk
YOLO strats. You have to make ramps. Or buy a set of quickjacks
whats the wheel fitment on the 86 with the gold 57's? looks sick af
hvf26 should be 18x9.5 +38
Yep 18x9.5 +38 with 255/35/18 tires

@@FTspeed are you guys running spacers? 38 offset wouldn't make it that flush would it?
@@hvf26 No spacers, 9.5 +38 will sit flush.
What ramps are YOU using??
Is that the MXP Comp Rs Ti?
Dope
Best way to jack the front of a car with carbon fiber fenders?
? Its the same id assume, why would u touch the fendors in any way when jacking lol
@@myevilrabbitgames Fenders are bolted into the jack point. What do you mean why would you touch it in any way?
Nice thanks
What’s the name of those blue rims??

Cool now I'm gonna install my coilovers
lol i'm just here bout to run my first oil change outside of warranty haha
@@BboyDaquack man I'm saying to heck with the warranty. I'm gkna be my own warranty. I'm doing coilovers wheels tires supercharger and tune. No cosmetic crap I just want to gap stock Mustangs and track my car will the engine blows. And when that happens I'm getting a 2JZ no ifs ands or butts haha. I'll drive beater for a year if that's what it takes to 2j this car in the end
@@dennisprow7576 hope u ready to spend a lot of money 😂😂😂😂😂
Why use a wooden block on the jack?
So the jack doesn't mar the under carriage/jacking point.
What titanium catback is that?
We'll release more info on it soon
@@FTspeed I'm gonna put my guess it's the new Tomei dual titanium exhaust they teased a few months back ;)
Yay i was doing it right lol
What lowering springs do you guys recommend that can be taken on the track and daily driven?
I'm running TRD/Eibach Pro and Bilstein B8 for street and track. Seen 3 track days on current setup
Had the same question and ended up getting coilovers. Given that you'll need alignment and probably want to get corner balancing too, it seems that in the long run the price of coilovers isn't that much higher.
lmao my pinch welds are bent asf they’re so flimsy
Same here. Which is why I ordered this. Works great! www.amazon.com/Potauto-Universal-Aluminum-Grooved-Magnetic/dp/B078J55SBW
i recommend Drift armors rear bashbar with jacking point. it defeats all the problems you were talking about with the rear and it fits under the stock "or any other" bumper.

1:06 What the fuck? Am I seeing things?

Way to completely disregard the manual and put people in danger
