ZL1 Add-ons Jack Points Don't Fit? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

I have a 2012 SS with ZL1 Rockers--

I bought ZL1 Add Ons jack points from a member, and just tried to put them on.

In the rear, they fit over the pinch weld, but in the front, they do not.

For those familiar with ZL1 rockers, there is only a small cutout in the front and rear of the rockers for the jack points to fit, so I cannot slide the jack point forward or back without cutting the rocker.

Thoughts?

Maybe I'm over simplifying this in my mind. the Jack pad isn't meant to be a permanent part of the car . Instead of sliding it down the pinch rail remove it from the pinch rail and move the jack and the pad to the other end and put the pad in place and jack it up.

They are made to fit in the small cutouts in the front and rear of each rocker. You need 4 pads, one for each cutout. Why would you need to slide them forward or back?

I have 4 pads, I don't need to slide them (I was just saying I can't try a different location because that's where the rockers have the cutouts).

The problem is that where the cutout is, in the front, the jack pad will not fit over the pinch weld.

edit - ZL1 addons asked me to send pics, I just had the time during daylight yet.
