Lift Points

Anyone got a picture of the pinch points to lift a ZL1?

I put these on my car to save the pinch welds.

They fit nice and I have less worry about lifting the car. I also bought a pack of hockey pucks on Amazon back when I installed the lift in my garage. They come in handy all the time and prevent any metal on metal contact.

I took your advice and ordered mine with some hockey pucks.

I always struggle to find the lift points. I think I've screw up the side skirts lifting my car.

Thank you for posting that link to the thread with the lift points!

I got the raw ZL1 lift pads anodized orange, as my car is orange. I didn't want black or red.

Hello all. New to the forum... I have a 2023 Convertible 2LT with the 2.0L Turbo. I ordered the ZL Addons Stealth pads, and have a nice 4-ton jack and plenty of 3-ton stands. My concern is, the convertible does not have that 3rd (middle) jack location on the pinch weld. Does anyone have a suggestion on how to get one side of the car up, just for rotating tires front to back. At this point, that's all I'm interested in doing.

**UPDATE**

I installed the ZL1 Addons Stealth Lift Pads, and had each side of the car up. For the fronts I am able to use lift pad to raise the car, and add a jack stand inward on the subframe. However, the rears are tougher. I can lift the backs using the lift pads, but then I am not sure where to place the jack stands. The convertible has extra crossmembers under the frame to add rigidity, and they interfere with jack placement that is suggested online.

Anyone around with some advice?

I put the jack stand under the x-brace bracket. Lots of steel there for support. Easy peasy.
