Kia Sorento: Lift And Support Points
When heavy rear components such as suspension, fuel tank, spare tire, tailgate
and trunk lid are to be removed, place additional weight in the luggage
area before hoisting. When substantial weight is removed from the rear of
the vehicle, the center of gravity may change and can cause the vehicle
to tip forward on the hoist. |
• |
Since each tire/wheel
assembly weights approximately 14kg (30lbs), placing the front wheels
in the luggage area can assist with the weight distribution. |
• |
Use the same support
points to support the vehicle on safety stands. |
