I created a jack point on both wings by attaching a threaded piece of metal
to the spar at the wing attachment point. It was attached with flox
The piece of metal is threaded for a metal "cup" that is a jack point. I
can send you more details if you need (and if I can dig up the photos from
my build)
By the way, I have seen a Legacy that got jacked at the tie down point - not
a pretty site.

Subject: [LML] Jacking a Legacy
For those Legacy pilots on the list...do you have any provisions to
accommodate jacking your airplane in the event of a flat tire while at an
airport other than your home base? If so, what are those provisions?
I had a flat on my main co-pilot side today and did not have anything with
me to address the situation. I was at a very friendly airport in Mobile,
Alabama ((KBFM) and they (Southern Avionics) took care of everything in a
matter of a few minutes, but if I would have been elsewhere...
