Hi.
Can anyone let me know where it is safe to place a trolley jack to lift the rear of my 2002 xsara estate?
Also, once lifted, where do I place the axle stands ?
Thanks in advance to anyone taking the time to reply.
Andy

Lift in the centre of the axle assembly cross tube, place the stands as far apart as possible under the cross tube, spare wheel may make seeing the ideal spot difficult so take it out if necessary.

Also try the jacking points on the sills. I've adapted my trolly jack to fit these pre pressed metal body srtips, saving a lot of messing about.
