Striker front jacking points

I have owed the Striker a few years now & this weekend I looking at thinking
Where is it safest place to jack the front of the Striker from.
I have got the back sorted.
The back axle the same as the Jester's Ive got
But as the Striker has no engine/Gearbox cradle to jack safely from like the Jester's front wheel drive setup from a Mk1 Fiesta
& the Striker being rear wheel drive Mk2 Escort based where is the safe place to jack from

Thanks in advance

Hi

Any bit of the chassis will be just fine, i normally lift the middle of the front with a quick lift type jack if that helps.

Any chassis rail is fine.

I try and get to one of the joints where to members join, just to help spread the load and improve jacking contact patch.





Track days ARE the best thing since sliced bread, until I get a supercharger that is!
