Where is the proper placement for a jack on the wide-trax suspension?

Where is the proper placement for a jack on the wide-trax suspension? Looks like it should be in the middle of the tires under the T-brace where the springs for the front and rear axle meet and are bolted to. My guess anyway?

I don't know if that is right, but that is where discount tire jacked mine up when they changed out and balanced my tires for me. They used large floor jacks and lifted both sides at the same time. Worked fine and I didn't see any problem or unusual sagging.

That is where I jack mine-son in law made a saddle to fit so jack would not slip. Asked the Dexter rep at Gillette and he shuddered and said use the frame. I think he was worried that the flanges may bend or break if too much sideways pressure was put on them.

I have a 22FBS and I was told to only use a jack on the frame. Because you could seriously damage the suspension otherwise.
