ANY BUYING/SELLING IN THIS FORUM WILL RESULT IN AN INSTANT BAN!

Read the rules: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=43956

Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

Beginner Forum Rules - EVERYBODY read! (old and new members alike!)

Beginners start here. Once you have 30 worthwhile posts (off topic doesn't count) you may post outside of the Beginner forums. Any "whoring" (posting simply to raise your post count) will return your count to 0, or result in a ban.

These are the rules. Read them. Live by them.

1) Absolutely NO flaming! "Flaming" is an outright attack on a member. ALL questions are encouraged to be asked here, no matter how basic. Members with over 30 posts will be subject to a ONE WEEK ban if caught flaming in this forum (and yes, moderators can read deleted posts). Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.

2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.

3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.

4) Temporarily banned members will be PERMANTLY banned if they are found posting on another account.

The rules can and will be added to. Any updates will be marked in the title.

The rules for the overall forum can be found here:
http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/forumdisplay.php?f=144
Read them. You will be expected to follow them.

              jack stands are fine

              Side note:
              NEVER DO ANY WORK ON A CAR SUPPORTED ONLY BY A HYDRAULIC JACK!!! They WILL leak

              On jack stands...do a quick wiggle test to make sure they are squared right.

                        the suspension will hang down with or without wheels... plus the weight of them will not effect anything...

                              If you jack the car up on the lower control arm, say for changing a tire, you don't have to have the jack up so high to get the wheel of the ground, but it can be hard to get a jack stand on the lower control arm with a jack on it.

                              don't confuse jacks with jack stands...BIG difference. Most folks think of hydraulic jacks when you just say "jack"

                              On jack stands you are fine

                              on hydraulic jacks you are not fine

                              on screw jacks (oem tire change jack) you don't run the risk of slow drop but they are not all that steady...not a good idea.

                              Again...jack stands no problems!
                              (unless they are on dirt then you will need to check for sinking...cause they will)
