As it says really guys.Need to get the rallye onto axle stands all round. Rear not an issue as I'll Jack up on the beam. What about the front?

Subframe is an option if your jack is a decent size.________________________________________  |

Think I'm about there....can get it high enough on the scissor Jack to get the trolley Jack under the subframe. Should then be able to Jack it up enough from there to get axle stands under the jacking points....Bloody lowered cars. Too low to even get it in the pair of ramps I've got.... ________________________________________ Cherry Red Rallye .... On going OEM spec restoChina Blue GTi6 .... Weekend toy Black 208 GTi ....

Use where the bolts mount to car. If you don't want it marked put a piece of wood ontop of the jack first if it doesn't have a rubber pad!________________________________________ Super high boost Completed, destroyer of gearboxes and 160mph club |
