2010 corolla front and rear hydro jack stand placement

soumikcha · Aug 31, 2014

I have a 2010 corolla S. I bought four jack stands and have one hydraulic jack. Its my first time trying to jack up the whole car in air at once to remove the four wheel at once. I could not find a reliable answer about the front and rear location of the car where I can use the hydro jack to lift the car. Any input will be helpful. I know about the four side corners but I am not sure how I can use that to lift the whole car, and if it is even safe.

FYI, I want to clean calipers,drum and paint them and also dip the wheels.

Use the frame rails for the jack stands, lift it from the front subframe and the rear lifting point with the adapter.

The front & rear jack points are easy to see. Your manual shows you where they are. The front one is just behind the front tow loop & the rear is just inside the rear bumper. Use the OEM scissor jack points fro the jack stands but use a jack puck so you don't damage the seam.

This what they look like.

And this is one with a jack stand. :smile:

Where did you get those?

ok got it. But as a backup, just incase the jack stands tip over. What can i put under the car as backup? and I am dipping the wheel so I cant use them.

I can use my hydraulic jack to lift the car & put it on 2 jack stands .... done. Why would a jack stand tip over? If the ground is solid & flat you should be fine. You can always leave the hydraulic jack inlace too. I will let it down so the weight transfers to the jack stands & then make sure the hydraulic jack has just enough tension on it to give additional support. :grin:
