Question 350Z Storage

I will be putting my 350Z in storage for 2 years. After some research it seems it would be best to put the car on jack stands to avoid problems with tension on the suspension and tires. Where are the best mounting points to put the jack stands as to not damage any components on the car? Any help on this wouls be great.

I'd check with local dealer repair shop. Also find out what to do about oil/gas/other liquids in the car.

they need to go at the points designated for jacking up the car as listed in the owner's manual- there are virtually no other options.
Also, you would need something to top off the jack stands with a center groove to accomodate the vertical metal strip that runs down each side of the car at the jack points. You can make such a thing or buy them from J C Whitney, among other places. Mine are due for delivery today!!!! $5.99 each

I found some great info at:

Thanks for the info. I would have hated to wreck the car by putting the stands where they don't belong!
