The service manual says all final tightening should be done with the wheels on the ground in a fully laden condition. That's not possible, at least at my house, so I need to lift the car on a set of risers. I found these but they're silly expensive for what I need them for:

I think I'll just buy two sets of ramps or perhaps cobble something together using 2X12s. The 2x12s would be cheaper but the tradeoff is they would be fairly heavy.

These would work at $40 a set:

Since I've decided to upgrade to coilovers I purchased adjustable end links from SPL. I assume I'll need clearance to install and adjust those.
