How to put Jack Stands under car

If you’ve ever had to lift a car with a jack stand, you know it’s not the easiest task. Well, here are three tips to make the job a bit easier.

1. Use a jack stand that’s height-adjustable. This will let you get under the car with more ease, and it’ll also help prevent the jack from slipping while you’re lifting.
2. Position the jack stand so that the arms are positioned underneath the car’s axle(s).
3. Grab onto one of the arms of the jack stand and use your other hand to pull up on the lever below the arm. This will raise the arm up so that you can place it underneath the car’s body.

Conclusion

Putting Jack stands under your car can help you fix or change a tire in a hurry. Here’s how to do it: 1) Park your car on an even surface, such as a driveway. 2) Raise the front of the car using the jack stand and remove any obstacles in your way (driveway gates or mailboxes). 3) Lower the jack stand so that it is resting on top of the tire. 4) Drive away from the scene slowly so that you don’t move or jolt the jack stand and tire combo. 5) Use your balance to unscrew and remove the lug nuts from both wheels, being careful not to lose them. 6) Put new lugs onto each wheel and tighten by hand. Be sure to use a torque wrench if you have one available – this will ensure that each lug nut is tightened evenly.
