USA 1972 Owners manual (see page 27 for details):
There are four jack-up points at the floor panel
You can jack-up the 1200 at these points:
Using OEM jack (see Owners Manual above):
- under rocker panel front
- under rocker panel rear
Be sure to use a Nissan or Toyota jack with a "slot" to fit over the rocker panel seam.
Using other jacks:
- Under lower A-arm (Transverse link), near tire
- Middle of engine crossmember (lift entire front end)
- center of Differential (lift entire rear of car)
- Outboard ends of rear axle housing
CAUTION: Before sliding underneath the car, be sure to place jackstands under the suspension. In a pinch a tree stump or beefy timber can work. Make certain it is secure, and lower the weight of the car on the jackstands.
