I've been using the diff for years now as a "one step" method of raising the rear end when I needed both wheels off the ground (say, to do a brake job). I read though, on another forum (Ford), that that shouldn't be done because the axle tubes could "bend." I can't fathom that being possible, but is it? So, before I embark on my brake job, is it possible that damage could occur?
CF moderator says: Yes, service manual says rear diff can be used as a jack point.
