I have aquired an 83 300D w123. What are the best places to jack the car up from using a standard floor jack? Also where is the best place to rest jack stands? I dont want to damage anything...

Thanks.

use a chunk of 2x4 and lift from under the stock lift points... Thats what I do.. others can chime in with their advice as well

Where are the stock lift point? Pictures would be cool too....

Thanks!

look under the doors... their are holes where the factory jack goes..



see forward of my rear tire.. I have plugs covering mine so it may be hard to see.

So I would put the jack with the 2x4 buffer right on the frame under that hole?

thats What I have done ... or if your jack holes are still solid use the factory jack.. and jack it up and put the jack stand under it with a chunk of wood.
