I'm planning on doing my 5 lug conversion soon and I'm wondering whats the best way to jack up the car. I've never had 4 wheels off the ground at once before.
1) I want to know best places to put jackstands for the 5 lug conversion.
2) Which end do I jack up first? I assume the front since the rear wheels are the drive wheels.
Usually in the front I put the stands under the K-Member. Is this ok?
I was also going to put jacks under the rear end for the rear, but what's the best way to jack that up? I read in another post putting the floor jack under the differential is bad.
And lastly, I also have lower control arms to do which I may do at a later time. In that case I think you need to put stands under the frame. Where is the best spot for them?
Thanks.
