What is worse than death?

Having the car come down on your waist, crushing your hips and permanently leaving you in a wheel chair with a colostomy bag. How does that sound for saving a few bucks on a jack and stands.

Get biggest jack you can lift. I found a 3.5 ton jack at Pep-boys on sale for $80.00. It is the low profile one that goes up 22". Also get 3 ton jacks that have a big sturdy base.

Were only talking about $200 bucks total for a safe setup to work on your car.

You will get that money back with you first DIY install.
