is it safe to jack up there dude?


Yep. I've always done it there. The legs on the ramp dont extend far enough to reach the front subby, so thats the strongest point. Actually, I think the lift is one of the most useful tools I own. No messing around scrabbling under axle stands ;)

Its usually the tools owned by somebody else.

A Quarter size socket set just proved invaluable (thanks Dugsy - ur a lifesaver!)
