Scissor Jack

drfrink24 · 04-15-2012, 01:40 PM

I was looking at my scissor jack, noticed that the end of it looked oddly the size and shape of what people use for jack plates..

So, I tested it out: Fits like a glove!

But.. is this OK, or are you supposed to jack on the plate + insert?

Yes, that is a jack point and fine to use.
