I've been doing this for years with no problems, but is it safe to raise myTJ with my floor jack under the front or rear differential pumpkin?Tom

Hi Tom, I would say so, it's the aluminum housing used in the GrandCherokees, that can't support the car's weight. God Bless America, ßill O|||||||Omailto: wrote:

A woman and a baby were in the doctor's examining room, waiting forthe doctor to come in. The doctor arrived, examined the baby, checkedhis weight, found it somewhat below normal, and asked if the baby wasBreast fed or bottle fed. "Breast fed," she replied. "Well, strip downto your waist," the doctor ordered. She did. He pressed, kneaded,rolled, cupped, and pinched both breasts for a while in a detailed,rigorously thorough examination. Motioning to her to get dressed hesaid, "No wonder this baby is under weight. You don't have any milk." "Iknow," she said, "I'm his grandmother, but I'm glad I came."Dave Milne wrote:

Why is that, praytell? Are you suggesting the axletubes of a full floating axle do not support the weight of the vehicle?

What does a Ful Floater have to do with lifting by the differential?

What is blaspheme about this?

If at least one Jeep in every group that goes out doesn't get high centered on its diff, then you are doing it right. ;-O

For some reason now I have a feeling that the tires on my Jeep are underinflated.
