Are all vehicle lifts safe for our vehicle? Are the lifts at tire shops safe, the x lifts that you drive over the mound untill front wheels are in front of staging and rear wheels are behind. Then the lift, lifts the truck up from body in between front and rear wheels?

is this safe to life this way, isnt out transfer case right under neath where this would be lifiting. could it hurt anything under there

"NOTE: When a frame-contact type hoist is used, verify that the lifting pads are positioned properly (1 and 2).
WARNING: The hoisting and jack lifting points provided are for a complete vehicle. When a chassis or
drivetrain component is removed from a vehicle, the center of gravity is altered making some hoisting conditions
unstable. Properly support or secure vehicle to hoisting device when these conditions exist."
