so i shouldnt be doing this,
Mine gets jacked up all the time like this,
drive up the ramps, jack underthe differential where its flat for the spring and lift away.
my ramps have a lip that keeps the front tire from rolling backwards
are you guys saying dont do it because of the rolling hazard or will it break something

It takes a little while longer depending on how high you need to go, and of course another set of jack stands, but ramps are too scary for the vette... I remember reading somewhere about a homemade version of the commercial drive on ramps in the pic in the above post. The looked pretty handy and you could stack them to the side when not in use. I plan on building some once i get the motor back in (so I can drive up 'em) and gain some storage underneath the car.
