Where are the jack points on an '08
Particuarly the ACR (if there is any difference), the frame rails are so far towards the middle of the car I cannot get the jack to it. The Gen2 frame rails were much closer to the outside, had a Gen2 low profile jack also.

There should be a protrusion behind the front wheel and ahead of the rear wheel. Looks like a small piece of angle iron.

My 08 has the angle iron protrusions as stated above. I also use them as tie-down points.

It's possible the ACR doesn't have them. Any one else have an ACR yet?

Ron, the front Jacking point is about 8" in from the side immediately behind the wheel wheel. It is a V shaped piece of metal about an inch and a half long, with the bottom of the v down, and the open section pointing towards the front. At the back, same thing, but about a foot forward of the wheel well. I find them easier to get at than the Gen 2.

Unless the ACR is different...think of nipples Ron. One behind each front wheel about 8" inboard. And then another in front of each rear wheel.
Nipples...think Nipples.

sometimes its better to use the hands and feel for such things, rather than the eyes...esp when covered up!
