Z up on Jacks

azn370z · 08-26-2010, 04:05 PM

When I left for NYC I left my prelude on 4 Jack stands for about 5 months. You should roll down the window and disconnect the battery. Or you may start the car every couple weeks.

Race Ramps products are nice, but indeed expensive. The stoppers shown there are for if you just want to drive up into the cup. I have the 2-piece wheel cribs (RR-WC-12-2) that are essentially the same thing, but you have to jack your car up to put the cribs under each tire. The 12" cribs are more expensive, but can be had for ~$135 if you Google the part number. There are even 8" cribs. BTW, I'm suggesting the 2-piece ones so you get a total of 4 components.

Humidity. Griotsgarage.com sells humidity eaters.

My car is on flatstoppers, battery manager, and full tank of gas during hibernation. No need for humidity eaters in my garage as there is no sun light to cycle hot/cold to induce condensation.

Condensation can also come up through the concrete during temp changes inside the garage, I throw a tarp under the Z when its stored for the winter.
