Do you mean you used one of the front two cross members marked with the red spot and it bent? Which one?

Yeah I started to dimple my front cradle as well and stopped.
And I know alot of people use the rear diff but that aluminum casting is just that, a casting. And they can crack.

Don't know about your car's manual, but all I got was a link to mine in which I printed out. It being 3 inches thick and in a 3 ring binder, mine would not fit in the glove box along with my collection of cool top down Oakley sun glasses.

Glad that I and the other members on here were able to help you out. That is what I like so much about this forum. You have a question and need an answer so you ask here. Then you get the answer from one or more members with knowledge and expertise with no judgment. You will get some let's just say off the cuff statements but for the most part the majority of members love to help out when possible. We all have been there and have gotten help from others on here.

Is it just me or do I see two pink circles and a pink arrow... looks like --8 although I think the arrow is pointing the wrong way.
