180SX – Rear lift bar

For over 3 years the 180SX has been too low to fit any type of jack underneath it, I have been jacking it off tow hook for all this time. It was time to make something that makes that process a heap easier. My TIG welder is out of action at the moment so I had to revert back to the MIG. Its quiet easy to jack now and the rear bumper is also supported nicely.

Although it looks quiet low the jacking pin is a lot higher than the fuel tank and the exhaust. Theres also a support bar that runs back to the chassis in the center to support it.
