Apparently this is a common issue as I came across a prior thread on here. Will this cause any problems? Couldn't really get under there to see after I released the jack but it looks like just the sheet metal was bent. That middle point (last pic) probably wasn't even a jacking point haha didn't realize how soft it was. Just saw the little indentation like most other standard jacking points and went for it until I heard the sound and cringed. I need some subframes. MM good? Worth the extra $25 for powdercoated?
You need some "jacking rails". They are a god send. The dealership i bought my GT from did the same to mine.I had them straighten it all back as good as they can,then i bought some Kenny Brown jacking rails.They go along the inner part of that pinch/weld seem of the rocker to give it strength.
I just bought some MM full length subframes earlier. I can just jack along those can't I? I'll ask Ford next time I go down there what it would cost to have it straightened back out. Prob an arm and a leg.
Agreed, not the best place to jack from. The only time you should jack from there is when using the scissor jack to change a flat tire on the side of the road, in the rain. I always jack the front using the K member and the rear on the frame. If I just want the tire in the air to rotate them or change tires, I jack on the control arm, near the tire as possible, both front and rear.
