    Hi all,
    Ive done a search on this question from the site, but didn't find an answer. So please don't jump my s**t if there actually is a thread for this on this site. Anyways, I have a new 4Runner and I have a Hi-Lift Jack that has been lying around the shop that I bought last summer for a stump removal. Ive yet to install any off-road armer to my TRD Pro, but bumpers and rock rails are in the not so distant future. But my question is, Is there any jack points in the OEM build that will allow me to use the Hi-Lift safely without any damage to my vehicle? Thanks for the info, much appreciated.

    this is what I have on the 2016 jacking points.

    also using a short bottle jack or a floor jack you can lift the front tires up off the ground with out using the frame and having the jack extended so much it is unstable esp. on soft ground unpaved surfaces. lower control arms are about 9 inches off the ground so a 6-8 inch bottle jack will fit.

    the rear use the axle which is a good jacking point because its less lift to get tire off the road surface...

    For a hi lift, the only way to use it without armor is with the lift mate to use on a wheel.

    You can't get to the jacking points underneath with a hi lift.

    Those points are only for floor jacks or the bottle jack. They will work fine though.

    I'd recommend getting sliders before all else so you have a lift point pretty much anywhere
