Vanagoneers: How do you jack up your Vanagon? Do you use the jack that came with your Vanagon (assuming that one actually came with your Vanagon)? Do you use a floor jack? Do you use a bumper jack from a 1962 Buick? Or what? Come on, confess. OK, question two. If you use a floor jack, how do you position the jack on the bottom of the jack receivers built into the Vanagon? If you do that, how do you fit jack stand under the receivers while the floor jack is there? You made it this far in the quiz. Now for question three. Has anyone tried a gizmo originally developed by the aftermarket Porsche group? I know that we have some Porsche owners out there, so 'fess up. It is a plate that fits the circular area of a floor jack welded to a bar that inserts into the jack receiver on the car (or Vanagon in this case). There are a few different models available, will they fit our trusty Vanagons? Now for the last question. If you use a bumper jack from a 1962 Buick, are you crazy or what? TIA for the response to the survey. Dennis Lockwood 91 Carat Original Owner
