    Here is a picture of the front lift point (green x), is it the correct one?

    The tire jack has a special groves to lift each side, but I'm sure as soon as the paint get scratch on the side panel underneath, the rust will follow.
    Besides if I go to a tire shop they will use their own jack (without cut out for side panels) and those lift points on the side are no good for them.
    So their only options will be front center and back center points.
    The back lift point is very obvious but I wasn't sure about the front.
    Is 2-ton jack OK for front center lift point?

    Looks exactly like it in the diagram. 2 tons is 4000 lbs. Sounds good...
