Jacking points

[Breech]

Good afternoon,

Just curious from all: what are the best places (both front and rear) to jack a TC33D tractor up from, as I replace tires?

The rear seems much easier as I was thinking right under the spot the tow bar connects to the rear axle. The front, not so sure....

If your jack goes high enough the front cross member will work, but on the front axle by each front tire works too.

Just looking for one spot up front to place the jack, and we'll use jack stands to take the tires off.

I use the loader to raise the front. A big floor jack under the rear drawbar to raise the rear tires for putting on my chains.

When I had my TC33D, I would jack it up from the front bumper/frame with my farm jack. It is good to unload the front axle when greasing the axle pivot. If the FEL is on, I could use that too.
