OK, here's a STUPID question:
I'm embarassed for asking this, but...
I know where my 4 jack points are, however, I can't jack up my car with a floor jack on one point and use the same point for a jack-stand. In other words, I can't put the jackstand under the jackpoint because the jack is already there, taking up the room. I'm kind of hesitant to try to jack the whole front/ rear of the car with someplace in the middle due to stability issues (cars arent supposed to balance on 3 things, even just for a few moments!)
What method do you guys use? Are there additional jack-points I may not know about?
/me hides his face in shame :nervous:

OK, I'll give that a shot. what about doing just a driver's or just a passenger's side at a time (with two jackstands)?
Thanks! - now answer my question about the shocks and springs!!!!

when I rotate my tires, each side front to back, I put a floor jack under the side jacking points, not using jack stands. The side points are pretty easy to see, looks like a good spot to put the notch in the OEM jack, sort of sticks down. What question about shocks and springs

Beatbom,
Your buddy with the 911 sure has a lot of beer! Heinie and Corona and a 911.... :thumbup:
all you need is a supermodel to complete the picture. (And at that point, you could get rid of the beer and car...):naughty:
