Keeping a 67 on stands for about a week

[Mark Jekot]

I'm swapping the incorrect wheels out on my 67 convert. for the correct wheels. I will be keeping the car up on jack stands for about a week or two.

Where do I put each of the 4 jack stands so I do not flex the body improperly?

Any other tips?.......

Thanks again to all of you who helped me through my radiator repair

Well, the "correct" place is just in front of the rear wheels and just behind the front wheels, on the frame, of coures. To prevent as much flex as possible, you could locate the front stands under the lower A arms where the shocks attach. This would probably be an even better idea if you have a big block. There's a lot of weight cantelivered out there with the jacks back on the frame.

Another note I have used since '73, when on jack stands leave the doors open, just enough to keep the latch mech.apart.
