center jacking point in front of car?

Is there a safe place to jack the car up from the front and center? I jack the rear up by placing the jack under the pumpkin. Up until now i was i just used ramps for the front, however im going to need to get the car higher for my t56 swap i believe.



thanks

You can jack under the center of the K-member. Use a board or something to help distribute the load, if you don't want to take a chance on making some small dents in the underside of it. The dents won't hurt-just more of a cosmetic thing.

If you want you can jack on what little of a frame the cars have...just do 1 side at a time as high as you want it then pop a stand under that side. Under the k-member is the easiest though.
