Sorry if this seems a daft question but it's better to ask than break something expensive.

I want to get the carin the air as best as I can at home. All I have is the normal axle stands and ramps. As the car is so low, I can't drive it up said ramps. So need to get the front jacked up high enough to shove the ramps under the wheels.

Where I'd the safest point for the trolly jack?

Thanks in advance for the advice. KY.

Thanks Guys

I've managed to get it in the air with the aid of a wooden block under the cross member. Had to have two bites at it with some blocks under the tyres. All in all a right pain! New ramp extensions coming my way.

Best news of all cant see any rot other than some surface rust on the front suspension components.

Just need to get these light pods sorted now. Anyone near Cannock who's got a working one I can have a look at?
