Default Changing Rims - best place to lift 420 Rancher

Hey All !

Changing out rims and tires on an 08 Rancher. Need to have the machine off all fours as I wait to have the rims and tires re-mounted. I have a floor jack, a chain fall, and a couple of floor jacks at arms length. What's the best way to get the machine off the ground for a day or so? Where's the best place to position the jack under the machine? Could I use the chain fall by hooking to the front or rear rack? Thanks for the help again!

you could probably just put them anywhere, its a honda you shouldn't hurt anything just by putting a jack under it. We usually put one in the center of the axle on the rear and then I suppose to have it a little more secure in the front you could put a jack under the front A-Arms. We usually just put them where ever we can get them to stay lol

put the front end on 2 jack stands and just leave to back on the jack. I use a motorcycle jack and pick it up all 4 wheels at once.
