Jacking Point and Stand positions

[lkz6678]

Are these appropriate floor jack and jack stand points on the front end of the car? I can't figure out where the factory lift locations are.

That little dimple you see (Circled in attached photo) is the factory seam weld, you can lift from there. Other safe places are slightly behind, where the suspension bolts to the chassis.

I also have a history of screwing up my side split welds where I jack the cars from and place the jack stands, I dont what this to happen with my sonic so some input would be great

Get two hockey pucks. Cut one in half resulting in two semi-circles. Epoxy the two on top of the whole one leaving a gap between the two semi-circles. Use the assembly to protect your pinch welds.

I’ve had to jack up my front end a few times lately. I’ve been using the jack on this spot, and using the jack stands on the dimples Vicarious circled. Is that a safe spot?
