That seems like an excellent plan!

What were there mods to be done? Kinda thought it was a remove and reattach thing.

Basically, but you have different length bolts, multiple washers, etc. Would be nice if they told you which ones went where and how.....

So did you manage it without stacking wood blocks under the jack or jack stands? I had approx 8" of blocks for the jack (lift height of 14") and 3.5" for the jack stands so they wouldn't be at max lift.

Thanks to Steve my self lowering jack woes are over, he got me a nice arcan with 24" capacity for helping out with his installs.

I had 3- 2x4 blocks stacked on the jack to get the last tire on the front.

I went to AutoZone the other night and bought some 6 ton stands so I got that covered. Just couldn't swing the $199 for a new jack.
