Since we now have the definitive answer on how to jack the car, how about the next logical problem, how to keep it (the car) up? In particular, when the front has been raised, where is the best spot

....and an even better question, John, what are the best inexpensive jack stands to own? I've got a pair of cheapies that I bought that, upon inspection, now I will only use to prop up the front end

Paul and Richard, I will tell you what I do. I place the front jack stands on the front cross tube just outside of its chassis intersection. At the rear I place the stands at the chassis where the re

How much is your life worth???!!! Don't buy CHEAP jackstands!!!!! While the Morgan is only about 1,400 pounds, so the stands don't have to be too strong. But, now that you have a pair of stands that

I jack & support my Morgan the same way. And while the Morgan doesn't weigh that much, it's a good habit to get into, keeping the jack under the car. Another very useful idea, is if you pull a wheel

Some suggestions are clever and some are elegant. Putting the wheels underneath the car, IMHO, is both clever and elegant. Chuck '52 +4 Phil, I jack & support my Morgan the same way. And while the M

I would like to put in my two cents worth regarding placement of jack stands, most especially the two rear stands. I am in the my seventh year of a ground up restoration(much too long)! During the ea

John's suggestion really does work. << Another very useful idea, is if you pull a wheel, slide it under the car for storage. Again, if something gives, it will give you an addition 4" to 5" of safety

I agree. Overkill isn't a killer. The question I was asking, and I realize I might not have been clear about it, was about BRANDS of jackstands. The ones that I've put aside are rated at two or thre

I don't know the brand name of the stands I've been purchasing. But these are heavy steel, with a "Y" vertical piece that is adjustable and has a ratchet vise pins to lock the stands at height. I've
