No no, I understand and appreciate. It's sitting on the jackstands and then some rock hard Southern Yellow Pine and then concrete. The pine is so hard the weight of the car on the jackstands makes little imprint in the wood. It's solid. Rube Goldberg, but solid.
Then I have wood stacked up under the front tires just in case one of the stands fail and I also have a 6X6 wedged under the rear.
I hate working under a car............
