standard jacking points on a Ford Focus are within eight inches of the wheel well, between the two wheels. feel under the car (approx three inches from the edge) for an n shaped steel bar running the length of the car. the two edges of the bar should be about 10ml appart. follow this bar back (for the forward jack point) until the gap becomes narrower, and the depth of the bar changes slightly. this indentation on the bar is the jacking point.

attach the head of the jack to this indentation, and then extend the jack towards the floor, ensuring that you have a firm footing when you get there. if you try and start from the floor and extend the jack towards the car, you could have trouble angling the jack head to fit the indentation.

this link has pretty comprehensive diagrams of the jacking points (scroll down to see second side of the fact sheet)
