Has anyone welded in a "jacking" point or somehow "armored" their pinch welds so they don't get destroyed when jacking. I am wide open to ideas but someone out there must have a good idea how to do this....pictures would be great..
Thanks

Please don’t attempt to jack your car up on the pinch weld. Use your frame sections or rear end.

I don't as I use anything but those, but sometimes it could be necessary. Nobody fab'ed up a weldable jack point. If you had a jack point, I can guarantee you would use it instead of going to the frame from the front or under a control arm or whatever...

I dont see how or why you'd ever want to jack a car up by a rocker panel , the point of using the frame and or rear axle is not only are they strong enough... but thats also where the "load" is
