Where to jack my 93 dodge dakota

Asked by tcranmer Jun 03, 2019 at 03:46 PM about the 1993 Dodge Dakota 4WD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

Hello,
Someone wonderful person hit me and popped my
tire today on my 1993 Dodge Dakota. Now I tried to
jack my car on my frame, but couldn't get enough
clearance for the tire to be lifted at full jack. Would
anyone happen to know where I can jack my truck
up to get the tire lifted just enough to change it,
and please explain in great detail on where, I've just
started learning my truck and do not quite know
the terminology yet. Harbor Freight said to jack it
up at the control arm, but I do not even know where
that would be just by looking at it.
Thank you for your time and patience.

raise it as far as you can then get some blocks or something to set it down on , then jack it behind the tire under the control arm the rest of the way , if the rim is bent it can not be repaired , it's toast
