Removing one wheel for repair.
Discussion
I need to remove one front wheel for repair on my V8 Vantage. Is there any reason the Vantage cannot be jacked up at the correct jacking point? I read somewhere that these cars should only be raised on a lift and that jacking at one jacking point can cause undue stress on the chassis and possibly twist the frame. I hope someone on here knows if this is BS or not. If it is the case, then the car is awfully fragile that the simple process of changing a tire could cause such damage.

There is a caution to not jack up one corner IF the tunnel shear plate has been previously removed, otherwise OK.Gassing Station | Aston Martin | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
