Where to support nytro when removing subframe

[yamaha06]

Well I'm removing my subframe to weld in some gussets, the only place I can see to jack the sled to get the front end off the ground is right under the oil pan on the engine? Where do you guys all jack the sled up, I don't want to crack or ruin that cover.

To jack it up, I put the floor jack under the subframe tubes. To support it for pulling the subfame off, what I normally do is use a pair of jack stands with small 2"x4" blocks of wood. Then place the stands/wood under the running boards below the foot wells.
You may have to "add some ballist" to the rear of the sled to keep the front end up, until the skis are off!
