Jack spots on a 2014 Prius c

Check your owner's manual.

There's usually a front and rear jacking point for floor jacks as well.

 

Think you've got it right. Page 366:



FWIW, I don't like putting safety stands at Toyota's scissor jack locations, they're so flimsy. Usually if you look around you can find something more solid in the vicinity.

 

I use these adapters with my floor jack:

I don't have to worry about ruining the side pinch welds.

 

That looks good. Pricy... I will bite under $10.

The front jack location is pain in your xxx. I can't even send my jack to that location, very very far back from the front. Last time I have to jack it from the side to do oil change. I think I will make a ramp for her.

 

Get something like a 3 ton jack, more reach.

 

3 Ton is too thick to get under the body. Unless you get those low profile. No idea why Toyota designed like that.

 

Tell that to my very regular 3 ton.



And even if it doesn't fit, drive the front tires up onto short sections of 2x8, there's always a way.

 

You have a C? The front bumper doesn't look like any version of C.

Yes. I do agree to drive on a short ramp is the better way. Not sure about Prius, but the front jackup location seems diff than C and regular prius.

The yellow bolt seems the location of the jack. It almost behind the front wheel. I can't even get my 2.5Ton jack under that.

 

Ah woops, no I was talking regular Prius. And I was so sure.

Thanks for the link, very nice pics, and yeah you're right, that yellow bolt location must be it. I looked at the Prius c owners manual for comparison. Hopefully running up onto 2x8 pieces will help you.
