jack stand placement?
whats the correct way to support the g when raised?
i know the area to place the jack stands -the reinforced area for the scissor jacks near the pinchwelds.
id prefer not to use a puck or wood on the jack stand. ideally, a section of square steel tubing could be notched to accept the pinchweld and attached to a jack stand. (like the infamous non-existent kent moore part) -- something like this, but for jack stands: http://www.eastwoodco.com/jump.jsp?i...emType=PRODUCT
in lieu of this, whats the better method?
use a flat cradle jack stand and set the cradle parallel to the pinchwelds as suggested here: https://g35driver.com/forums/showpos...12&postcount=8
or use a ratchet style jack stand that is notched for unibody pinchwelds? the cradle crosses over (without bending) the pinchwelds. there are quite a few nothced jack stands out there - here's one: http://www.shinnfuamerica.com/(S(ltp...?Type=0&ID=149
