Anyone purchased jack pads for the 992? I can see the jacking points accept a circular pad, but am not sure if the size is specific to the 992 or the same as the 991 (which look to be more oval shaped from the sites selling them). Looking to remove my wheels for cleaning & ceramic application. Also discovered that I need a lower profile jack, so that's on the shopping list too!
Thanks.
Not sure if it helps exactly but I used the standard low profile ones from jackpointstands and it was fine. The mounting hole is slightly larger, but didn’t seem to affect it. Also I’ve been very happy with this jack, got it about 4 years ago.
Anyone find an appropreiate pad/puck for the 992? Diameter is 25mm and I've attached photos of front and rear points. Front lift point, 992 - 2020 Rear lift point, 992 - 2020
My old 997 pucks will NOT fit or be useful.
Thanks
Looks like they changed the frame jacking point hole design now to a round shape......my 993 and 991 jack pads have a rounded rectangular shaped insertion design......inexpensive to buy on Amazon......measure the dimensions of the hole and a universal one may work...
Has anyone actually put their 992 on jack stands? I presume the only safe place to apply enough pressure are the 4 jacking points. Given that, there isn't enough space to jack at one of those spots and then place a stand there. When I tried to do this, jacking on one of the rear points raises the entire side of the car, while doing a front one just raises the whole front of the car. So, bit of a puzzle on how to get the entire rear high enough to insert stands on both sides.

While pricey, this is why I love the jackpoint stands. Raise it with the jack, slide the stand underneath, lower the jack, and you’re done.

Yeah, they worked fine. But, keep in mind that's in conjunction with the quickjack system, so I'm not jacking the car up with a floor jack, then positioning stands. The Quickjack lifts all 4 points at once, and those blocks, positioned properly, work quite well.
Also, the quickjack surface under them is just a flat/level piece of steel. Not sure I'd recommend these for normal jackstand/floorjack use.
It's applicable to anyone who jacks their car up on a regular basis. The endorsement on my part isn't the blocks, it's for the whole system. I can't begin to explain how much it simplifies your life if you regularly do your own maintenance, particularly on things like brakes. (Just changed mine the other day, jacking up the car took three minutes)

+1 for quick jack. Future (992) owner here and hoping/wondering if anyone could measure the distance between jack points and post. Hoping it is 60" or less! Thanks in advance
