Description And Operation: Lifting: Notes
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2006 Mercury Grand Marquis and 2006 Ford Crown Victoria. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
WARNING:
On vehicles equipped with air suspension, the electrical power supply to the air suspension system must be shut off prior to lifting the vehicle. This can be accomplished by disconnecting the battery or turning off the air suspension service switch located in the luggage compartment on the LH side. Failure to do so may result in unexpected inflation or deflation of the air springs which may result in shifting of the vehicle during these operations.
CAUTION:
Do not allow the hoist adapters to contact the steering linkage, suspension arms, stabilizer bar, rear subframe stabilizer brackets or to compress the lower suspension arm stabilizer bar insulator. Damage to the suspension, exhaust and steering linkage components may occur if care is not exercised when positioning the hoist adapters of two-post hoists prior to lifting the vehicle.
CAUTION:
Never use the differential housing as a lift point. Damage to the differential housing and cover may occur.
Lift the vehicle using the Lifting Points procedure in this article.
