What's the quickest way to switch wheels if you have sideskirts?

Hold up... Weren't you the one who was flaming the bathroom scales as a way to corner balance a car? You know....the system thats a whopping 10 or 15lbs off....

Although you may never notice 30lbs (IF thats what it weighs), ita the COMBINATION of 30lbs here and 30lbs there just to look cool that will kill you. That system has no functional advantage whatsoever. You still need a jack for the front of the car...that same jack can be used on the rear of the car, making this system useless. Well, except to say "look at me!!!"

I'm starting to notice you just like to argue. Why don't you tell me, WHY IS THIS BENEFICIAL to a 240?

Again, cool idea but basically a useless mod.

How many times a Drift event do I need to change my front tires?

whopping 10-15lbs off my ass. I bet your shit scales 50lbs different every time you use that peice of Rube Goldberg shit.

I'm not gonna make that contraption, because I'm not lazy enough to not use boards. But I geuss some people are, and it works for them.

Again, whats the point to this mod? Where is the justification for spending time, money, and materials only to still need to cary another jack around and to add more weight to the car?

None. No point. Waste of money to a track goer. Money well spent for a hard parker.

I understand this isn't so fresh, if you suck at driving and all you do is go to track events and eat front tires plowing around.

But you have to understand that jack would be really effective for drifting if you were motivated enough to make it.

How stable is it though?

[drftwerks]

how stable does it need to be? im not going under the fucking car, its as stable or more than a floor jack holding the car up

[4bangers]

for the front, where do you jack the car up?

[articdragon192]

I'm an idiot, lol. It's not like it's going to teeter over. The front two wheels should be enough lateral support.

I just roll my car up onto my Takata Low Down ramps
and jack up the car from the rear diff.
what the fuck noobs we got nowadays.

to get to front suspension:

1. place 2, 2x4's on top of each other, with enough room between the first and second 2x4's so that the wheel can "step up"

2. place wooden block on jack and lift from lower sill/pinchweld area behind front wheel. jacking up one side will lift the opposite front wheel if you are low enough.

3. place jackstand on opposite side pinchweld.



to get to rear:

drive up onto 2 stacked 2x4's and jack from diff.

easy as pie.

fuck fancy ramps.

whatever.

takes like 2-3 minutes to change a wheel if you have coilovers, even in the rear.

im telling you guys.

if it works for me, it will work for anybody.

I do it this way..
