Car jack ideas

[Stevo302]

Any better/ safer ideas on jacking a vixen up for longer periods of time? Mine's on 4 axel stands at the moment at a decent height with all wheels off. Is there a better way? Either for over winter standing or working on.
Regards,
Stevo.

No.


sometimes the old (and simple) ways are the best

Where do you place the jack stands? Also where do you jack it up from?

I love my mobile axle stands, great working height can be achieved with the right jack and you can wheel the car about as need, bingo

If the web site says out of stock call them up.....they have them out the back

They come apart dead easy so store in the shed when not in use :-) they offer a slightly more expensive version with nylon wheels vs metal ones. If your garage floor is not billiard smooth I'd spend a bit extra on those ones for easier wheeling

I have a garage under my house (sous sol complet) and a car trailer (Lider make).
I fitted a Ball Hitch to the back wall in the garage. Hitched up the Trailer in the garage and roll a car up on Trailer.
I can easily slide under to do work on whatever car i wish.
