Can you jack the Liberty with the rear hitch without doing damage?

Can you jack from the pumpkin?

What are the good jack points?

Getting ready for rear Upper control arm, The Boomerang complete.

I found detailed instructions for doing the rear upper and lower control arms at the same time, but no instructions for just doing the upper by itself.

Any links would be appreciated.

I believe the lower rear control arms were already changed

I have jacked it up from the hitch with no problem, the dif, the axle tubes, and the rear park of the frame.
If I remember correctly you'll want two jack stands under the rear axle for the swap. Just make sure to give it a good shake before you climb under :2cents:

Have jacked mine under the diff, shock mounts etc , I put the jackstands right in front of the rear LCAs for support and lower it down a little on unlifted KJs to get in there better. Lifted you don't have to even jack it up so no concerns :lol:
