Default "Pinch Weld" Adapter DIY...

Here's a great way to lift your Durango while utilizing the jack points. I used (2) hockey pucks. Cut the first one in half, separate the (2) halfs by leaving about a 1/4" between the two. Place them on top of the other hockey puck and use (2) screws on each half for a total of four screws. After they are secure, place tape over the screw heads to protect the frame rail. Presto! You now have a Pinch Weld adapter. Place it on the saddle of your floor jack and you're ready to go. Good Luck!
