    hey just wondering if it would be alright to jack the car up from the k-frame?
    its a 5ltr if that makes any differance, im just installing a set of pacies and i cant get them in from the top so i have to go from underneath and i got the car on stands but i need the car to go about another foot higher.

    ive got the passenger side in but just the drivers side is a bit of a bastard, ive moved all the steering and everything out of the way but the only way i can go is from under.

    Its ok to jack it there but if it falls off you could be in som strife. I like to put wheels underneath the sills just in case it falls i might have a chance of living
