[DeTomaso] Installing Jack Pads under the Pantera

The simplest place is under the motor mounts and in fact if you buy Halls jackpad kit, they're predrilled to fit there. The installation involves removing the 3 nuts on each side, putting a plate over the protruding bolt ends and replacing the nuts. The balance is about right to lift the whole side, too.
 Good luck- J Deryke

I have not gotten that far, but I have the same desire.  In case you don't
already have, I cleaned up a bmp of the chasis drawing so I could mark it
up.

Installing Jack Pads under the Pantera

I'm about to do some welding and
undercarriage cleaning up on 1488 and am wanting to attach small steel jack pads
to the frame at each wheel corner.......or whatever else works better.  Being
that the car is so light, my jack can lift the entire back or front, so having
one mounted center might also make sense.

If anybody has done this, please
let me know where the best unobtrusive locations are.
