tho..maybe two jacks...

how does one put jack stands on... one at a time? I am used to having access to lifts

I usually start on one side get a jack stand under a front corner, move to the other side and do the same thing there. Then jack up the rear from the pumpkin and get jack stands under the rear. Then, I'll go around and jack it up higher if needed.

I have race ramps now with the extension for lowered vehicles. I'll drive up them and then jack up the rear from the pumpkin and install jack stands under the rear.

Me Three!

Biggest mistake I ever did to the car, and I'm glad I was able to change it back. Looked good, handled like crap - no shock damping/rebound, and cost me over $1k to fix damage to the front bumper and undertray in the just three months the car was lowered.

Even at stock height I still scrape constantly and have to back out the driveway on a severe angle.

:iagree: I can't understand why people lower this already low car.

Looks (fill wheel gap) and performance (lower center of gravity & stiffer suspension)

Morning all. Well it appears that I may not have to have surgery , as I'm feeling a little better today, although time will tell.
