Unless you have a very low profile jack, the brace spot in the front is hard to get to initially. I suggest getting some pieces of wood cutout in like 4"x4" squares and cut a lit channel to jack from the side skirt jack points. Helps to not crumple them.

Wouldn't even bother with the factory jack. Just have two roller jacks. Makes things easier!

Those are nice and I didn't even think of them. But my budget for this project is already going into the red so I'll just have to do it the ghetto way.

For absolute peace of mind when I do extended time projects, I leave my car on ramps that are raised high into the air with flat pieces of wood.

No way 4 ton each ramps are gonna fail. ^^
