I would jack it on the two jackpoints on the rear where you would put your sparetire jack.

Yeah, I was the one that got that posted ;-)

Center of the rear beam. Use a block of wood between the jack and the beam.

If you jack it up from the side jack points, where are you going to put your jack stands? Hmmm? Leave it on jacks? Not me, brother!

what about a small piece of carpet instead of the wood to prevent scratches? i'm thinking the wood would make it a little unstable.

What about ramps?!

My Addco is coming in next week, and I went and bought some ramps ($25). Is there any problems with installing the Addco RSB on ramps? Do you really have to take off the wheel? (This is my first do-it-yourself mod, and I'm a bit nervous.

THANKS!
