jacking point after installing nuespeed rear tie bar

I am getting ready to install my nuespeed rear tie bar, however I am noticing I won't be able to jack my car up in the middle anymore. Has anyone found a way around this? I always liked being able to jack the rear up using the middle frame point below the rear sway bar.

Did either of you have any problems loosing that little thread nut that you put in the 1/2" drilled hole. I had one go in fine and the second one pushes through so you cant thread anything into it. I was just gonna cut the old one off and buy another tool and thread bolt unless you guys have any suggestions. I also thought about heating it up to make it expand and possibly having it stop moving around if its hot?

i dont have the nuespeed, but i got the Progress rear combo meal, and they work deliciously with a jack, just dont rush yo'self to get it up! it did fine. but let the jack compress before yanking it out. i hit my bar once, never again!...lat'r

i don't really like the idea of lifting the car up by the tie bar...

then deal with it! haha

The neuspeed and progress bars can probably handle it, but I wouldn't do it.

You can use the tow hook but make sure you jack can go high enough...mine can't.
