    My replica is on a VW pan has a “Y” frame around the Fwd end of the  transmission and then down to one frame. Like dual exhaust going down to single exhaust.
    Is it OK to put a piece of 4 X 4, 16” long across that “Y” right at the end of the transmission and place the floor jack under that to jack up the entire back end of the car

    Should be ok. I lifted my TDr, with the floor rack under that junction point, without the four-by-four. But please, don’t do any work on the car that way! Jack stands under the rear torsion tubes please. 🙂

    If you own a TDr and are not in the Registry, please go to https://tdreplica.com/forums/topic/mg-td-replica-registry/ and register (you need to copy and paste the link)

    <p style=”text-align: left;”>I plan on using jack stands. In fact the rear right now is on ramps and the front is on jackstands. Thank Paul</p>
