   ----------------------------------   
   I plan to use one or two screw jack stands with two or three ratchet ones to   
   equally support the body lift points, with ratchet stands or timbers as   
   backup just below. The spreader bar lets me lift one end while the other is   
   on ramps, or with the higher Badlands offroad jack raise the ramp end enough   
   to remove the ramps if both wheels need to hang, as when adjusting steering   
   free play. Lifting all four wheels like a professional lift isn't as simple   
   as I'd hoped, neither floor jack goes both low and high enough.   
      
   I have a yellow Toyota Land Cruiser telescoping screw jack with plenty of   
   height capacity but too small a baseplate to trust if the other side's tires   
   are off the ground. It's nice as a horizontal bandsaw stock support.
