How's that work out for you when there is no engine in the car... [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/naughty.gif[/img]
I use the same one Verne show's a picture off, I glued thin neoprene rubber strips to the jaws to help from slipping.

Even with the compressor, I still used a floor jack because of no engine in the car. I have a complete photo step by step of how I did it, but the files are too big I guess and won't post. I ran straps under the floor jack and attached to the frame so when the jack lifted the lower control arm, it couldn't lift the frame. IT was tedious to set up but in the long run everything was a breeze to put back together. I wish I could post the photos.

Verne -- I've used then same method and it works well ... just be cautious! TAZ
