I would like to start installing my own parts in the future so I want to know what parts I need to get the front of the car up. I hate using the stock jacks and cracking that little POS stick.
What do you think is the best way to get the front up ...both wheels in the air.
I was thinking of buying a nice car jack(the ones that slide beneath the car) and get 2 car jacks to put under the car. Since I dont think you can lift it up from the front of the car do I just lift one side up and then put the stand on one side and then move to the other side and do the same thing? Never really did it myself and im not sure if this is the right way of getting both wheels off the ground safely.


Any tips would be nice...Thanks

 

I use this...


and 4 of these

 

Oh and to jack it up, jack up on the pinch welds below the front doors and put the stand on the "frame" of the car.

 

cool thanks for the tip

 

BTW is it safe to just have only the front of the car lifted?

 

Yes.

 

I was thinking the jacks my tip over since the car is sitting on it in an angle... I would not want to be under it if it does.. yes I need to have the parking brakes on

 

Well, you really want to try and jack the car up on a level surface.

 

can you provide pic of this pinch weld.....

 

Feel the pinch, only jackup where it's doubled up. The same rules for the back of the car. (Tho you can jack at the rear dif)

 

floorjack, jackstands, rhino ramps, or if ur really rich, buy a lift, makes life so much easier

 

Looks like someone didn't heed his advice

 

There has to be a better way to jack the front, The side railing is getting all chewed up when i use a non-oem jack!

 

I have that same Craftsman jack.. it kicks ***!

 

well, if u don't wanna use a jack on the side railing, use some ramps.
