Front and rear lifting points

Need to send my wheels out for repair, im not able to locate a front center lifting point and you need the long quickjack to raise that way... How are you guys suspending your cars without a dedicated lift?

There is a center location it is very hard to see under the front.... I'll look for that pick again. The rear is the diff there is flat spot you use and use wood. Ultimately since I already have a quick jack I bought the long arms as well for about half the price since I didn't need the pump. I don't trust lift points that use the diff but for short term work.. I get it you can use jacks too but F it the quick jack is well worth the price. lol

I'll consider a 6000elx as well, the 5000 doesn't really fit anything we have

The only one that is will be the 6000ELX it was designed for the long electric wheel bases and to spread the battery weight correctly. It does fit confirmed.

Yes, considering just ordering it... Home Depot has it at 1599 and I have a hellcat and crossover to lift with it so I think it'll make sense.
