This morning I went out to Wally World and purchased a 2 ton floor jack. I want to put Lucille up on four 2 ton jack stands so I can get a better idea of what is going on with my brake system. I have jacked up the rear axle and placed two of the jack stands just inside the springs underneath the axle. My question is, on the front can I lift the truck up at the center of the front axle with out doing any damage to the axle? I mean that's allot of weight up there! I'm planning on placing the other two jack stands under the axle right under the springs. Will that be OK? I've never had the whole truck up on jack-stands before and am a little nervous.
