Is it ok to use the 2wd front axle to jack up the front of my jeep? I don't think I want to experience bending it

That tube is pretty solid... I've jacked mine by it a few times when changing tires.

You can jack your XJ by either axle or anywhere on the unibody frame without hurting it.

Cool. I am used to less sturdy vehicles , and I always had to be careful where I lifted the darn things.
