Re: How do I jack up my ZR-1?
Looked around for the rear jacking adapter. Believe it was available from the "Corvette Gadget Man".
Appears he may not still be around. Do a search for him & you will find some pics of the adapter.

Re: How do I jack up my ZR-1?
I hear ya! I follow the pinch-weld forward of the "designated jacking point" (printed on the rockers) to where it curve toward the middle of the car and away from anything my floor jack is going to interfere with. Then I place a jack stand ahead of that - along that same pinch weld. NO SPECIAL ADAPTERS NEEDED (I find).
BTW, the article you referenced was mine. So, if you need clarification(s) or whatever, let me know!

That’s the jack I got. If your tire goes flat, this is the only one to get you out of that bind. Plus it is light and not expensive![emoji482] Sent from my iPhone using ZR-1 Net Registry

Re: How do I jack up my ZR-1?
I use my jack on the pinch weld close to the rocker as possible but underneath the car and place the jack stands further forward along the pinch weld as they get closer to the motor. Ill see if I can dig up a photo to better explain it
