Bumper/farm jack

<< < (2/4) > >>

Les:
High-Lift jacks work well (I have 2) but don't think I'd use it on a bumper.  Hydraulic floor jacks are fairly cheap and safer.

I'm sensing a trend here. LOL.  My only concern is getting the front end high enough.  The highest floor jack I found went 23".  Would that be high enough to drop the trans?

shooter:
having done some mechanic work, most jacks wont lift a car that high. usually you have to jack it up as high as possible then put on stands,
  then put a block on the floor  jack and lift it higher,,, always be careful of a car that high.  use only good quality jack stands

Jack it up and block it, then add a block to the jack and jack it higher and block again.

That was my plan.  Jack it up a little at a time and keep the jack stands moving up.

I come here and always get good advice or confirmation on my plans.  All the suggestions here have really helped solidify my plans.

Now, if I could just get someone to volunteer a nice lift for awhile,... LOL.
