Default Jacking up the Grizzly

What is the best way to raise a grizzly for storage.
I want to raise the atv so the tires are off the ground for the winter.
The manual says to raise the atv if you are not going to ride it for 60 days or more.
I have a floor jack and need to know where I can place it under the atv to raise it without damaging anything.
I see that there are atv jacks that go under the center of the atv and raise it from there but you leave the jack in place. I only have a floor jack for raising cars and need to know where to place it.

The only reason they want you to lift the quad is to keep the tires from getting flat spots caused by sitting to long in one place for long periods of time. Depending on how long you will be letting it sit it realy is not that big of a deal, but if you must all I will say is cinder blocks or logs cut to fit [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

anywhere in the engine/frame skid plate area should be safe as long as the quad isn't 'tippy'

The easier way is to RIDE it
