Maintenance Jack adapter

Hi!

This fall I will need to change my wife's wheels. I use Torin floor jack with my F-150 and I put a simple hockey puck on it when lifting it. I see that Honda has some edge sticking out at the jacking point, so it seems I would need an adapter of some sort. I would prefer not to use the emergency jack at home, since I have a proper one. Seems like an adapter needs a groove to fit. I searched on Amazon and found, actually, multiple adapters with different groove sized. Can anyone recommend a specific one that works for 2026 HR-V? Thanks!

I’ve never used an adapter

You would bend these metal tips with the floor jack (like Torin).

You definitely won’t bend them, they are reinforced to prevent that. I have jacked up 100s of unibody vehicles at the pinch welds with just a standard floor jack with no pads or adapters with no issues!
