There is a correct method to lift your Suzuki Swift safely, both for the vehicle, avoiding damage with unsuitable equipment, and for yourself, preventing injury from the vehicle falling due to an unstable jack. You need to obtain one (preferably two) jacks.

They start from £27.00 on Amazon, and you will also need a pair of axle stands for support (£29.71 for the pair, also on Amazon). There are specific locations to place these devices.

The jacks should be positioned in a special notch located between the two doors. Do not forget to place a rubber pad between metal and metal to prevent paint damage.

The axle stands should be placed at the centre of the vehicle, where the video shows, under plates that represent the strongest part of the vehicle, ensuring that no vital parts are damaged.
