I know... working on acquiring a lift, but the shipping/hauling home aspect is quite a hurdle.

I had an "experience" once when lowering my Blazer way back when... car on jack stands, lowering rear axle, and *SNAP* whole thing lowered on me... scary.

I'm also nervous because the jack stand area is like a donut, but the top of the jackstands is a "claw"... (they need some kind of standard here). where do y'all put the floor jack so as not to take up the jack stand spot?

EDIT: I have had the rear on ramps before and have had been able to "one tire at a time" a few jobs (spark plugs, brake rotors/pads), but thinking of tackling the motor mount / water pump combo as preventative maintenance.
