Also, are you planning to jack the front up using the pinch rails? You won't be able to access the center jack point with a floor jack when the rear is lifted.

With all four wheels on the ground I have to drive one front wheel onto a short piece of 2x6 or larger laid flat to get the clearance I need to access the front jack point and lift the whole front end at once.

Thank JAR. I realized what the issue would be after I walked away for a few hours. I won't be able to jack front up.

I agree, all in all, a risky proposition.

My alternative is to use my quick jack to lift and then lower onto wheel cribs. I wouldn't be doing alone. Only issue may be QJ doesn't like to lift or lower without a load.

Its a small distance, so I think it should be ok.

Reason i'm doing is, i need weight on wheels but access to under car.
