Hello, I need to get my Copen up on axle stands for a few weeks whilst I rust proof the underside etc. I have found some forum threads and the Daihatsu manual with the official jacking/axle stand points labelled, and although I have easily found the initial jacking points for my trolley jack, I am not confident that I can spot the correct place for the axle stands by the sills. Has anyone actually done this before who could point me in the right direction? A picture of the correct front and rear points for the axle stands would be amazing.
Thanks both, that's a great help. I have found the notches I believe (see pic) and I have made some wooden blocks to fit over the sill lip at these points to help spread the load over the axle stand a little. It'll be up on stands for at least a month so hope it is OK.
It’s called a pinch weld. If you look on the famous auction site, you can get rubber pucks fairly cheaply that will offer better protection especially if it’s going to be there a while. You could have had mine but I junked them last month !
