'90 Integra, but I imagine all Honda IRS is about the same.

Is there a safe, sturdy jacking point in the center of the rear suspension with which to jack the entire rear of the car?

Thanks.

According to the FSM for my 1989 Civic you should use the tow hook. Which is sort of int he center on my car. I used it and it did pick it up evenly. Not sure about the Integra.

Well, that exists, and it's used as one of the mounting points for the trailer hitch, so I suspect it's plenty strong. Thanks!

The rear tow hook is super beefy on my EG as well. I wish it were a little flatter but with a hockey puck it always lifts well enough to get stands under the rear trailing arm's front mounting points.

Yup, tow hook. The subframe between the LCAs is not strong and will bend if you jack there without some wood or something to spread the load.

That tow hook is plenty strong. I wished more manufacturers put them on like that as it made impounds very easy to load on a flatbed.
