I had the front wheels of my Z4M off last weekend and the car was being supported by a couple of axle stands as well as the trolley jack being left in place whilst I worked in the wheel arches.
I need to replace the CPV which would require me getting right under the car to get access. I'm a bit nervous about lying under the car when its on jack stands. Do others happily get under their cars to work whilst it is supported by 4 jack stands? Or if I am going to get completely under the car should I look into some other means of raising the car?
I have seen ramps with inbuilt jacks like this, I'm not sure if they would be any safer?
It would be nice to have my own post lifts installed at home but thats a pipe dream
