well a 4x4 will work much better(I'm just kidding)...but I'm working on this concrete hole in my driveway, so I don't have to jack it up every time...
That's how we did it back in the old country

I always put jackstands in for safety's sake...trust me, it ain't fun if it falls on you...I KNOW THAT:-D
that must have really sucked... id hate to have a honda fall on me.... it would most likely kill me. Ive tried to squeez under mine before but i couldt because my rib cage is to big. so a falloing honda would crush it. [sm=smiley11.gif]

Well I had a 2.5 ton dodge fall on me...I'm lucky as all I got out of it was a couple of scratches, but in no way do I wish to try my luck again.

hmm..if you got a lift of any kind use it. or a 2 ton jack or anything..stands work as well..will make it much much much more easy...i did a full exhaust switch on my probe with only a 2 ton jack..takes a **** loada time and makes it more challenging but its possible

i used ramps up front then jacked the *** end up then put it on stands. i wont crawl under a car only supported by jacks.

but if you have access to a lift go that route.
