ledfoot73 Posted August 17, 2012 Report Share Posted August 17, 2012 I always use a 2 jack approach. On the front I use the low profile jack from Harbor Freight at the jack point on the rocker panel to get the car high enough to use my standard floor jack under the subframe. At that point the car is high enough to use either jack stands, or to put ramps under the tires. If the front is then to high to slide the floor jack under the rear end, I just repeat the 2 jack approach for the rear also. It really makes it pretty straight forward.

I bought race ramps a while ago, multi purpose. I drive onto the ramps and use my Craftsman 4 ton jack to lift it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2007_Shelby_GT Posted August 24, 2012 Report Share Posted August 24, 2012 I knew someone had something like this - a "jacking insert" from Revan Racing! Nice billet piece! http://www.revanracing.com/products/true-forged-billet-jacking-insert.html Sam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2007_Shelby_GT Posted August 27, 2012 Report Share Posted August 27, 2012 It involves welding, but here's an option that was posted elsewhere: http://store.kennybrown.com/product/chassis-support/jacking-rails-1979-1993-mustang-and-2005-2014-mustanggt500 Sam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elgin Black Posted August 27, 2012 Report Share Posted August 27, 2012 I just purchased some Race Ramps (a bit pricey). If I have to go higher I've got a couple of friends with lifts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EL SHELBY Posted August 27, 2012 Report Share Posted August 27, 2012 The Kenny Brown jacking rails is my prefered option. Just haven't done so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShelbyDW Posted August 28, 2012 Report Share Posted August 28, 2012 I've been using the RR front and back, doesn't seem to be an issue on the 07 SGT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CSX4833 Posted August 28, 2012 Report Share Posted August 28, 2012 I'm not a big fan of jacking up a car since I've bought Race Ramps but one jack that fits under everything is this one. It fit under my CSX cobra with no problem. It's pricey, but it'll last forever. http://www.griotsgarage.com/product/2-ton+floor+jack.do Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
