Rear diff for a trolley jack, just in front of the rear wheels for the supplied jack.

Rear diff

There's a jacking point in front of the rear wheel on the sill (behind the plastic "skirt")

If you feel behind the skirt, you'll notice the indentation in the sill.

Driving onto blocks of wood helps raise it high enough to get a jack in the right place
