How to lift Porsche?

[kbrunk1]

I am buying a non-running 1973 914 and see UTube videos with the engine removed.
Where are the lifting points and can someone help me with this process?

Hi mate ,




Hope that helps.

There are little donuts on the four corners as you can see from the illustration above.

If they aren't rusty it's the best place to put the pad of a floor jack.

I bought one of these and for me (low lifting) I love it!!!!

the warnings are - these CAN slip out if the angle is too great (high lifting)..they will fly off on test rides --- a "remove before test flight" label should be applied!!

I like it because it gets both wheels off the ground at once.....

Not sure the lift points on a 911 chassis diagram will be identical in a 914. Better confirm before bending something.

is that one of those times when reading ALL the words is important

Well, the subject did use the word "Porsche" so I can see how the poster from France could get confused. The 914 is a VW (VW-Porsche) in France afterall!

Ok , i had not noticed that was a 914 question.

Sorry.

My answer was for 914 applications.....on my 911 I use the jackpad and then set jack stands under the rear torsion tubes and on the front the A arms.

No donuts on the four corners under a 911.
