Hi guys….I am suddenly in doubt where the best jack points are.
Atm, my car is jacked up on the torque boxes….is this ok for a while?(2-3 weeks) Or is it better at the engine cross member? Thanks.

I've had my '62 Fairlane on jackstands at the torque boxes for months at a time before and it was fine. I can't imagine it would be different for 1970.

Ditto, the torque boxes are main chassis points of force, so place the jacks under those or as close to the four wheel suspension main structures as possible. |
