see those axle stands, they were at the rear crossmember, they go pretty high, im not stupid enough to work under a car suspended that high without something else to support it, so yes, with 2 you could get it prettt dam high, but it would still be freaky. Im definately getting one of those jacks for xmas.

PS cable ties saved the day again, thanks steve

High lift jack

You can lift both ends of the car up, you just need big axle stands! I guess I have no excuse for not fixinf my suspension now!
