Does a Hawk muffler have the same jacking points as stock? Is it as strong since it has been redone on the inside?

randy would know for certain but i would tend to say not quite as robust. if i'm doing light maintenance such as a single tire replacement...brakes...etc and need a single wheel off the ground i put a dedicated piece of 3/4 inch thick plywood the size of the hawk bottom on a floor jack and lift that method. if more involved work i simply remove the muffler and use a floor lift and plates that engage the factory front and rear muffler clamp brackets.

I use an atv jack, and have never had an issue, even had it strapped to atv jack for a few days when my kickstand pivot bolt broke, no problems here

My jack points are gone from modding my exhaust but use a 2 by 4 the length of the muffler then a jack under the wood and have no problems.
