Question about jacking up a Xb2 with a Five Axis kit ...
I noticed the side skirts / side ground effects are kinda big on the Five Axis kit and was wondering, are you able to jack the vehicle up with the standard factory jack after installing this kit?
Please, someone who has this kit or experience with this kit respond! Thank You!!

usually, people just drive up some ramps, wooden or brick blocks, just have someone guide you. the more expensive way is get a low profile jack, jack up the front or corner enough to either place jack stands or enough to fit a standard jack under. personal experience i've drove up wooden blocks that were like 4 inches height. just placed the wood 2 inches in front of the wheels and have a friend guide me. used regular jacks and drove back down afterward. you will need to remove the blocks before you keep driving or else it's gonna hit your sideskirts or front lip.
Hmmm interesting - I guess an idea might be to mount the side skirts using screws and then keep a stubby screw driver in the trunk, so if you get a flat or whatever reason it needs to be raised, you can just unscrew it... just an idea...
if your talking about the factory road side jack that comes with the car it still works fine I have the five axis kit and TRD springs and I can still use the jack that came with the car. You just have to lay it on its side slide it under the car then turn it the right way.
