Yes. Jack up car, slide ramps under wheels, lower car onto ramps.

This sucks so much...my front swaybar driver side endlink bolt was stripped by the last owner of the car....ugh

Thanks for the help all, the car has successfully been jacked up and secured, but will have to wait until endlinks arrive to finish install :/

Oddly enough, my fron driver side end link bolt was ridiculously tight. I ended up using a 6 point box end wrench + my floor jack to break it loose.

They are indeed very clever, but their pricing is ridiculous!!! I am quite positive they have enough customers anyhow, cause they're still around.

Thanks for the information on where to place the jack stands. I can see that the pinch panels are weak, so the hard point would be the only suitable place. I'm going to purchase some plastic covers for my jack stands at harbor freight before I jack the car up.

If you're worried about lifting the car at the corners where the OEM jacks is supposed to go, here's something I did recently:

Modify a hockey puck.

Seriously. Just use the hacksaw to cut two 1/2" slots down the middle, about 1/4" apart. Then take a flat-head screwdriver and dig out the middle piece. It will just tear right out. And just like that, you've got a perfect jack-point adapter that sits in the middle of the pan on your hydraulic floor jack.

There are people on ebay selling $2 hockey pucks as a "Solid Vulcanized Rubber Floor Jack Disk Pad Adapter" for like $20. Kind of funny. It says "Canada" right on the side of the picture.

Great idea, thanks.

I did something similar. Bought a 20 pack of pucks from ****'s. Cut one in half, screwed the halves to another puck, ~3/8" apart. Made 4 like this. Works great and no damage to the pinch welds.
