I've got my '46 up on four jackstands because I'm redoing the brake system completely. The two jackstands in front are right underneath the front axle just inside of the springs. The other two jackstands are underneath the rear axle also to the inside of the springs. Question is, is this safe? I know at some point I'm going to have to crawl underneath this truck to do some work running new brake lines. I feel a little uneasy and need to hear from others if they think I'm going to be OK? All of the jacks are rated for 2 tons each. The front jackstands make me the most nervous because that is where most of the weight is on the truck. Any other safety suggestions would be appreciated!
Oh, BTW, these jackstands were made in China and were purchased at my local FLAPS! No way around it. I just hope one can believe the rating on them!!
Another thing, I can't find any information on just where on the truck you would locate a jack for changing a tire! Anyone know where the correct location would be? It's not in the owner's manual nor in the shop manual.
