Out of curiosity, how did you fix that issue? I think I'd have been tempted to place a small board over the flooring and hammer away at it. I'm learning in this thread that there is no one answer to any question--so many little outliers. Now I have to remember to be careful trusting in the...

The attachment from ycgoat also mentions that location as a jack point, and I will remember that for future reference. It's rather high up there, so I'll see if my new hydraulic jack can make that work. It would be nice to have an additional jack point so I can place an additional jack stand...

Checking in so people know I wasn't crushed to death. I have at least read all of the comments and am appreciative. After inspecting the underside more carefully (especially from the front), I found an unobstructed jack point at the subframe that was actually easy to access with the scissor...

Overwhelmed by all of the useful information I've received in such a short time. It seems like the pinch weld area and the control arm itself are out of the question, so I should aim to jack from the subframe with board as I originally had it setup in photo#2 of the original posting. Failing...

I'm guessing this is my control arm: So it's safe enough to jack anywhere along that bar, despite the rather smallish bolt holding it to the subframe? I read somewhere that I might be risking alignment issues by jacking on the control arms.

So, mostly as I've already shown in the second photo, with a second jack point at the framerail? I'm not sure my vehicle has a reinforced framerail--the closest I could spot were the two rails running on either side of the sparetire bay (the left-most arrow marked), which doesn't seem too...

Thanks for responding. So it seems like there's one vote for lifting as I've shown it in photo#2, and another for lifting in the pinchweld area. Would the idea be to put the board in the section I've marked here, or put it right over the pinchweld stretch and completely crush it? If I go...

Hello! New here, and I do a lot of basic car maintenance for the family. I've got a 2006 Chevy Malibu LS 2.2L I'm working on currently. I just replaced one front caliper and the front rotors/pads. I started to do a full brake flush/bleed, and realized that both rear jack points are rusted to...
