scoobygirl Posted April 19, 2016 Share Posted April 19, 2016 Took mine to the garage this morning for its first service since I bought it last month. Phoned them at 5pm to see how it was going. Seems she has been a naughty girl and wouldn't take her shoes off easily. I wont get her back until tomorrow. This means I will have to use the other halfs motor to get to work in the morning :-(. oh well guess I will just have to make my own psssst noise when I change gear lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

david1972 Posted April 26, 2016 Share Posted April 26, 2016 Trolley jack and torque wrench ordered today ready for my spare alloy wheel set which is due to arrive later today [emoji2] Tyres apparently have plenty of life in them and are matching, so going to use straight away before binning them for winters later this year...will help to save my falkens [emoji41] Sent from my iphone using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
david1972 Posted April 26, 2016 Share Posted April 26, 2016 New winter alloys are here...better condition than my current ones lol Matching pirellis on with 3.5, 4, 4 and 8mm tread. I know ideally you wouldn't, but where is the best place to mount the 8mm new tyre? Sent from my iphone using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

david1972 Posted April 26, 2016 Share Posted April 26, 2016 Can anyone advise me where the trolley jacking points are for my 2005 Outback - I know roughly from watching my mobile tyre fitter guy previously, but if anyone has pictures or can advise of the exact location I'd be grateful. I just want to be able to jack it up safely to change one wheel at a time, so the appropriate point at each corner is the info I'm after please? If no pics or diagrams available, then a description that a dummy novice like me could understand would be great :) Thanks folks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stants Posted April 27, 2016 Author Share Posted April 27, 2016 Are you wanting to Jack the front end up in one ? I've always used the crossmember just after the engine under tray it's bolted on and quite short, as for the rear, the rear diff is the recommended place, Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
