So started to get the car onto Axel stands to do both a clean up ready for refurbished calipers plus get drivers side sill replaced.
That's until I some how stupidly managed to make the car jump the stands when I was jacking up the last wheel at the ns front.
Car lurched 3 feet to the left at the back and 3 to the right on the front and all I could do was sit back and enjoy the show.
Carefully managed to lift the car back up and put wheels back on one at a time.
Believe it or not the only causality was my trusty old Halfords axel stand and my trousers...
For sure I'd welcome some advise on where I went wrong...I used triangular pieces of wood on my bigger axel stands (costco 3 tonne ones) on the back so they would sit as flat as possible on the rear axle...and this looks to have failed. The surface isnt flat it seems!
For sure this could have been a whole lot worse.
