Jacking Points


In addition to the information supplied in the owner's manual, here is some information on the vehicle jacking points for the RAV 4.3.

Please remember:

  • Don't jack up a heavily loaded vehicle.
  • If you're removing a heavy part (e.g. engine), the centre of gravity of the vehicle is likely to shift as you do it.
  • Don't work under a vehicle just supported by the jack - it's not worth the risk.
  • Use correctly placed wheel chocks if appropriate.

Above all, always follow the appropriate safety precautions.

If you have side steps fitted, there is some information on side jacking points here:

The central jacking positions for the 4.3 are:

  • Front: Engine under cover
  • Rear: Body lower back panel - You'll need a long reach jack.

Please work safely.
