I'm overhauling my car. I was wondering if any of you guys knew of a way to support the car for a long period of time. I was thinking 4 Jackstands, but I'm not sure if this is right for the frame or not.

I need to remove the wheels and suspenion for a long period of time. Whats the best way to support the car till everything is installed ?

Thanks,
DEF

I wonder if Art and Erik might like in on the action? What about Bboy? Itchy? Are they coming? Manny should be ready and I am sure he will be game. This is really a "once-in-6gc-ownership" kind of thing with all these cars and I hope people will get off the lame ass excuses and make a committment - especially all you east coasters. If I drive 15 hours to get there, you guys should be able to do half that.

i know your trying to do the right thing for your motor, but this is one of those times where you should just trust the guys who have had their swaps for a while and have done a ton of research into this.
