MANUAL UPDATE - SEC. 0A LIFTING & JACKING POINTS

VEHICLES AFFECTED: 1990 U-VANS

The attached illustration is being provided to emphasize information shown in the Service Manual illustrating vehicle "Lifting and Jacking Points".

Although the underbody of the vehicle is similar to A-body vehicles, there is one very important difference. What appears to be a "Pinch-Weld Flange" on the U-van, is actually a single metal thickness surface for bonding body panels. The correct surfaces for Lifting and Jacking are shown on the attached illustration. Failure to utilize the correct surface may result in damage to body panels.

General Motors bulletins are intended for use by professional technicians, not a "do-it-yourselfer". They are written to inform those technicians of conditions that may occur on some vehicles, or to provide information that could assist in the proper service of a vehicle. Properly trained technicians have the equipment, tools, safety instructions and know-how to do a job properly and safely. If a condition is described, do not assume that the bulletin applies to your vehicle, or that your vehicle will have that condition. See a General Motors dealer servicing your brand of General Motors vehicle for information on whether your vehicle may benefit from the information.
