I have the rear of my TR3 on jack stands mounted at the frame but on the rear cross tubes (since they are rounded they fit nicely into the cupped top of the jack stands). I noticed yesterday, that the door wasn't closing quite as perfectly as it did before I put the car up.
So the question is, given that I am doing extensive body work and will eventlually remove most panels after the floors are done, where should I be putting the jack stands? I have 4 and would ideally like the car (safely) up on all four.
The wheels can stay on for some time as this is a long term project so I could alternatively just make some secure 2x6stacks under each, which might be the safer option...The frame is not soft, nor is the change in door gap major, but it is more snug than pre-jacking up the back end...
thanks,
Kerry
