I'm wanting to get under the 7, prep the chassis and then coat it....but at more than 2" from my face which is what I currently have with axle stands.
Anyone have a lift that I could borrow for a weekend?
Or a genius way to get my car higher off the ground?
That Ginge.

Woo, has a title now. Was thinking jacks on top of railway sleepers, but ideally I'd love to be able to stand or at least kneel.
