Is it the large center dimple that protrudes downward in that silver cross brace just behind the black plastic cover?

I am putting on HFC and a CBE system. Got everything off except the stock cats. Damm those bolts are a mother f*cker!!!!! I already broke a 14mm socket trying to get the passenger side bolt loose that you have to go in from the top of the engine bay. St*t!

Hard to see my red circles... Are these the front and rear "Garage Jack Points"?

For the front, that is the contact point I used. I haven't needed to jack up the rear yet, though.

Figured I would post in this thread and not the other. That is it. I have a Craftsman 4 ton jack with removable saddle. I remove the saddle when I jack the front and the dimple fits right in the hole on the jack plate very nice and secure.

Default Ryno ramps

Its easy to drive on the Ryno ramps without removing the front air dam. just cut a piece of 1/2" plywood 9" wide about 2 to 3' long. Stick a 2x4 block under the ply and set them a short way up the ramp. Bada Bing, drive right up your ryno's.
