Can anyone tell me the safest jacking points for a Griffith?

The corners and centre front and back would be really handy - I would hate to end up bending something I need!

Cheers

I always tend to use the ends of the main longitudinal chassis runners, but i guess anywhere along them would be ok ? I always chock the wheels. If you cant get your trolly jack under the bodywork I used a couple of wooden 2" planks that I drive up onto gives me enough clearance to get the jack under and in a good position. Never use the outriggers as they can giveway.

The outrigger corners on the plate section are perfect for jacking,if your worried about these giving way I suggest your chassis needs some serious attention.

The only part of the chassis I would not use would be the rest of the outrigger.
