Jacking & Hoisting: Hoist
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2001 Honda Prelude, 2001 Honda Odyssey, 2001 Honda Civic, 2001 Honda CR-V, and 2001 Honda Accord. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
WARNING:
When removing heavy rear components such as suspension, fuel tank, spare tire or tailgate, vehicle center of gravity may change and cause vehicle to tip forward.
- On all models except Accord, when removing heavy rear components such as suspension, fuel tank, spare tire or tailgate, place additional weight into trunk of vehicle before hoisting. Placing front wheel/tire assembly into cargo area can assist with weight distribution. On Accord, when removing heavy rear components such as suspension, fuel tank or spare tire, place tall safety stands under front of vehicle after hoisting.
- Place lift blocks onto reinforced support points of side body panels (between front and rear wheels). See Figure . These are same points as used with manufacturer-supplied jack. Lift hoist a few inches and rock vehicle to ensure vehicle is firmly supported. Completely lift vehicle and check for proper vehicle support.
