Powder Coating / How To Jack Up Car?

Thanks for the input. A hydraulic jack versus a floor jack? I'll look into it. The real pain is going to be the limited room. I'll keep doing some research,

well, i say hydraulic jack to be more specific that i am not referring to a scissors jack, but a lot folks do call a hydraulic jack a floor jack.

you will need to lift under the front frame brace and the differential so you will need room forward and aft if you are going to do all 4 at the same time.

best bet might be to take your car to a wheel repair place and have them do everything, including taking the wheels off the car, etc.

Well the deal is I want to powder coat my wheels. How would taking my car to a wheel repair place help? Are you meaning an outfit that repairs AND could coat the wheels?
