RE: [DML] lowered front end and jacking?

["K Creason" <dmc4687@xxxx>]

I have to raise one corner with the factory jack, then slide the floor jack
in from the front (with a piece of wood on top to avoid metal on epoxy) and
under the frame to finish raising it up. Or, drive in on top of some wood
(mini-ramp).

Subject: [DML] lowered front end and jacking?


hey all,

i'm contemplating lowering my front end with PJ Grady's front spring set. i
like the rear but i would love to drop the front and get rid of that
unsightly wheel space. however, i am afraid of the troubles i will find
with
jacking the car up if i do so.

how do those of you who have your car lowered jack up the front end? i want
to know if there are any floor jacks available that will fit under there so
i
can jack it from the front crossmember behind the crumple extension. i
already know the tricks with driving it up on 2x4's, but what if i am in my
garage and the car won't run and i need to get it jacked up? what do you
do?
