I THINK you need to read my replies and show me WHERE I wrote any part of it that STATED that your method was UNSAFE or WRONG.

YOU replied in a post dealing with the amount of TIME it takes you to support one. I simply replied I DO NOT worry about how long it takes me to jack one up and support it...ALL I am concerned with is that I get is safely supported...The TIME it takes to support one is NOT a factor.....and IF you take that as judging you...or 'implying' that your method is WRONG or UNSAFE....that is evidently how you process what you read.

OBVIOUSLY you did not read the last sentence in post #13....AND again the last sentence in post #19.

And how about what you wrote in post #16
Dub, I don't need to take all day to do it

SO...leave it at that...as you wrote in your last post. And who is judging who???

Yep, that's a big problem, and I suspect it often goes undetected by the user. I discovered this only recently, when instead of jacking it one side at a time for jackstands, I slid ramps under the front wheels. When I was raising the second side, the ramp I'd already installed came under extreme sideways stress. It started to tilt, and one side actually lifted off the ground entirely. This must happen with jackstands too, but it's more difficult to see because of their construction, plus the sideways stress is more concentrated in the middle of the triangle rather than over the wider surface of a ramp. Anyway, I no longer put an entire end of the car in the air by jacking it one side at a time. I find a centerpoint like the rear carrier or a crossmember and lift it evenly from the get go. Anything else appears inherently unsafe.
