RE: Lifting car ?s
i'm glad you guys found my comment funny, because after posting it I laughed myself lol.

RE: Lifting car ?s
Well you guys have officially scared the crap out of me, so when I get the stuff I will make sure my brother works on it with me incase of the WORSE case senario. 2 is better than 1.
Anyway I will probably get some good jack stands from Jegs, spend the money there, and go to Sears and get a decent jack to get the car up. Then like you guys said I can use the jack as support, but I won't cheap out on the jack stands, as they seem to be most important. I will get 4 jack stands and just have the whole car lifted.
Also I have wood that I use when my dad's mechanic does the oil change because I know a normal jack won't fit under my car. I drive up on the wood first and then get the jack under there... So I have that covered.
Last question... Someone told me to get a creeper? What is it and what does it do for me?
Thanks.
