Thanks for the help. I have a question in regards to the jack stands
and jacking the car. Given then nature of the construction of the
car, the manual states to jack in the rear arch's of the wheel
wells. Both front and back of the car. I have a pump style jack on
use on my healey. If I understand the construction of the car, there
is no frame of the backbone at the rear of the wheel arches in both
the front and the rear of the car. Will that stress the panels and
create crazing in the panels? Is this the safe way? Where would
everyone recommend I jack the car from?
Additionally, can I put the jack stands on the rearbar that goes
across the engine compartment? Will that have enough strength for me
to do some brake work? The brakes are locked up on the car.
On the front of the car, where would I put the jack stands?
I have the traditional jack stands that have a "u" shape to them. I
have padded them with some carpet though. I want to make sure that I
don't bend the backbone or create anymore crazing in the panels of
the car.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated
