Best Answer

When I use a floor-jack, I look for body frame behind or nearest to the wheel I'm looking to raise.

You can also use the center of the front framing support to lift the front-end.

And for the rear, while it's a long way up underneath, you can get at the center of the rear suspension (similar to where the differential would be in a rear wheel drive).

On the otherhand, I believe the factory tire jack is more designed to lift at designated points at the bottom-side of the rocker panels. Check the Owners Manual for illustrated instructions (See "Related Questions" below for more)

Where are the jack points on a 1998 Chrysler town and country?

The front two jack points are on the 1997 model and the rear two are on the 1998 Sebring. Early 1998 models had the spare tire in the Jeep Grand Cherokie, while later editions had it in the 1998 Chrysler 300. Confusing? Could be worse! The mid 80s Dodge Omni Horizon's jack points weren't on Chrysler/Dodge maid cars! The front right point was on the Ford Fiesta, and the rest were on the VW Rabbit GTI editions!
