This is good information for any 6th gen Camaro owner. I've been using the ZL1 addons mag pads saw them on your older video, glad I watched it so I didnt lift in the wrong spot or not using the pinch weld.

@Nothankyou122 3 года назад

Thank you! This is the first video anyone who just bought a Camaro should watch.

@joshtanner5173 4 года назад

Great info here! I have been curious about this for a while. Nice to know the safe places to use without worrying about crushing or collapsing body parts.

@italiqban 4 года назад

I have a 5th gen 1le and been using the lift pads for over a year now. Great product. Dont be afraid to purchase these! I was skeptical they would stay on after my initial install but i have never even gone back and tighten these after the initial install and all is still well. Easy lifting!

@Clone895 4 года назад

I LOVE the lift points... Got them as soon as I got my car, and they have been fantastic. I can confidently jack up my car in half the time it would normally take me

@alternativechannel9580 4 года назад

Very helpful information Matt. I have the Pittsburgh 3-ton low profile jack, the ZL1 Addon "permanent" lift pads installed on all 4 lift points, and 4 ton jack stands. I got the ZL1Addon items courtesy of watching your vids and they are great but I always had problem of how to get jack stand inserted when the jack was using the pinch weld lift point (front was issue). Seeing your tip on the inside subframe is a game changer. And likewise your old vid on using the center diff lift point allowed me to put stands under lifts points ahead of rear wheels. Now I can get 4 points supported with jack stands. (Before I got the permanent ZL1Addon pads I used the mag pads and the hockey puck inserted between mag pad and jack's lift arm cup--and for a simple wheel/tire changeout they were great combo).

Thinking about doing my own oil after only getting 2400 miles on last dealer synthetic change. Thanks for posting this before I went in and bent shit up. How different is the SS convertible underneath compared to the coupe. Asking because the ZL1 addons lift pads are different for convertible than coupe.

@Karlbrandt0145 2 года назад

Excellent demonstration thank you so much!!!!

@zl1mike189 Год назад

Very informative video! I have the flat version of those pads and they are super nice. I was changing out my oil today and noticed the pad starting to bend towards the door. I think this is due to not having the lift point on the jack centered with the pad, however, if I center it then my jack is going to press against my side skirt. What solution would you offer for this? Jacking both sides up at the same time? Btw I have a low profile Daytona jack. Thanks

@idkwhatsgoin 2 месяца назад

Having owned a c7 corvette before my camaro, I can't say I am a fan of the design. The corvette had 4 clear jacking points with pucks to lift from. If you jacked it up from the centre lifting point, the whole one side of the car would lift with no stress about bending any pinch welds or worse

@bradparker4271 3 года назад

What about using the differential as a lift point, it's cast iron? In the center?

@pereiracallistus1234 3 года назад

Does your garage have any slope? I plan to swap out my summer tires and my garage has a slight 3 degree slope . I was thinking of using chocks and lifting from the lower side so as not to increase the incline angle further. (Swapping out one wheel at a time , using a jack stand and 3 ton hydraulic floor jack as secondary.. thoughts?

@christopherk3610 4 года назад

I've got a similar set of jack stands like the ones in the video and I refuse to use them because your supposed to push in the metal tabs on the side (you can see the sticker with the arrow that points to the tab that needs to be pushed in). I noticed you didn't push them in, is this not a safety issue?

Hey Matt, Love the channel. The ZL1 Addons Bolt on's were my first mod to the car. Wouldn't trust it any other way. I noticed the fiber under panels installed on your floor boards. Was that an upgrade you did or did the car come like that? My 17 SS Convertible doesn't have them & thought they should be there for better aerodynamics. Or it was just a 1LE thing.

I have zero faith in the magnetic lift pads. I have .039" magnetic lift pads. After lifting the car in the right front corner the pad twisted causing the fender and rocker panel to buckle in. I didn't lift my car as high as yours. A three month old car and it has a $1,000.00 in damage! The pinch weld is still straight. The lifting surface is flat and straight concrete. The floor-jack is an almost new 4-ton Harbor Freight unit I've used before. Perhaps .025" gap lift pads are needed. I never liked the idea of the pinch welds as a lifting point. If it can bend, it's not strong.
