the hitch, looks to be
TFS 84-88 TRAILER HITCHin the jacking position...
the jack can only go so high... but you get the idea. jack from the center where the reciever goes to make a "T"
the lifting position for raising the rear for a motor swap, suspension work, dropping the tank or any other work...
*REMEBER TO REST THE CAR ON STANDS BEFORE VENTURING UNDER IT!!*the reciever is a 1 1/4" from lowes.. can be had from almost anywhere. it is also a 2" drop for and xtension for better lifting capability and not crushing your license plate or puncturing the bumper
resting the car on jack stands at the hitch is the best, gives you so much more room to work on whatever on the underside. you can also use one stand in the center if need be.
this all was done with a 2 ton jack, 1 ton lift and 1 ton stands. the hitch w/ receiver did flex a bit when i lifted everything with the engine still in when testing how it works. less flEx with no engine of course.
