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 will return one day. |

OH Jayson, You getting a little nervous ? Is your imagination getting to you ?
I'll tell ya what in a few weeks, I'll have a teaser pic for you. When I get to the meet, I'll let you pop my hood. So you can see some real JDM power. Mac has his money on the right set of horses -------------------- I will return one day. |

This is a trip to the DRAGON.....and even though we won't be doing any races on the Dragon itself, a trip like this is ALL ABOUT driving. The same could be said about making high powered (250WHP+) FWD cars go fast. So, it will likely just come down to driving skill. My bet is on experience and beauty over braun (assuming you will have more horsies). If not, it will be experience, beauty, and braun over........what?....painted wheels?
