This video demonstrates how to lift a Ford Transit from its specific lifting points on the bodywork.

For the front, both left and right sides, locate the bolt head for lifting. For the rear, position yourself under the leaf springs to avoid damaging any part of the bodywork and find the most robust point of the vehicle.
