Jack Points

[Sean J Blackburn]

Probably a dumb question, but I'm going to ask anyway.

2010 1500 4x4. Is it OK to jack the truck up from the front crossmember? The one that the sway bar bolts to. It looks substantial and like it would be fine but I wanted to ask before doing any possible damage.

I've got to do tie rods and control arms and need a good jack point for the front. If the cross member where the sway bar bolts to is a no go, what's the best jacking point for the front end? I miss my Cummins with the solid front axle haha.

Thanks all!

Yes crossmember is fine. I usually jack it up there and then stick a jack stand under the frame rail on each side.
