hensh65 Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 My skirts have covered all the jacking points along the side and have a notch at each end that only the rotten factory jack can get in. Tis a pain in the hole Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SJ350z Posted July 31, 2014 Author Share Posted July 31, 2014 I used ice hockey pucks on a low entry jack after driving onto a bit of 6x2 wood when I had my Nismo kitted 350. This is completely genius.. I had one lying around from Guildford spectrum.. hoping its still around somewhere gonna have a hunt. Thanks mate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stutopia Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 (edited) You can get puks for next to nowt on Amazon. Read the reviews, all they say is, "no idea if these are good for hockey, but I use them to jack my car up!" http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/cr/B0073UQTMI/ref=mw_dp_cr Edited July 31, 2014 by SuperStu 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firemansim Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 None of this works if your car is lowered as well. The only way to get a jack under my car is to drive onto some wood blocks ( even with a low-rise jack and puck ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam Mcgoo Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 This is a post I made from another 'how to jack up zed thread from 2 weeks ago' . . . We'll as you know, you've answered you own question. Lol Jack it up as on the diagram you describe. Trolley jack goes on the rear diff. There is a round metal knob that protrudes down from the diff - this is the jacking point so you don't have to remove the diff cover. The front goes in between the front wheels, behind where the engine under cover is bolted. This I have a picture of..... Getting under the car far enough can be a pain, I need to use block first. I just cut a length of 4x4 into 4 pieces. I drive up on these then there is room for the jack. The other jacking points are marked by a little V cut out in the sill seam. This is designed for the scissor jack which has a slot in it for the seam so as not to damage it. You can use a trolley jack or axle stand there, but with caution and you'll need to use a piece of wood or a hockey puk with a slot cut out so you don't crush the sill. Hope that helps. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam Mcgoo Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 Also, if you drive onto the blocks as shown, it will alow you to use the OEM scissor jack as well. As the car is higher from the ground it allows the scissor jack to become narrower as it raises therefore not hitting your skirts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SJ350z Posted July 31, 2014 Author Share Posted July 31, 2014 Thanks for the detailed message mate it pretty much covers everything.. even for the challenged Zed owners like me Going to pick some bits and bobs up next month to make this easier like plastic ramps and a low trolley jack for myself Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
