Floor Jack Needed

[blue2000s]

I've been using a Sears low profile jack that was about $75. The lift arm has a hole that can accept a post style adapter to work with Porsches. I had to modify the post to fit under my RoW suspension though. With stock ride height it would probably work fine.

I have the same one, works reasonably well. I wouldn't crawl under the car with only this jack holding it up though. Always use a couple of stable jack stands.

Any little 2.5 ton floor jack should do the job. Just try not to buy made in China.

Use the stock supplied scissors to raise the side, then you can reach the center jack points without jack saddle modifications. Just remember not to take the scissor out and drop it on the floor jack when you let it down.

Remember theres a central jack point in the back. Its the U shaped brace near the back of the transmission. Just put the jack, with a hockey puck in the saddle, right between the last 2 bolts that hold the aluminum tranny pan onto the u shaped brace and the whole back end comes up.

San Rensho, I'm speaking of that same spot but you need to raise the car to get to it with any floor jack I know of, hence the side scissors extra step.

Once again, you guys (and gals?) are a great source of information.

Low profile jacks can do it without the scissors jack. My 3 ton Big Red low profile jack fits just fine under my car.
