He's intalling a 4wd kit and rubber tracks so he can use it to groom the snowmobile trails.

C'mon maxwellwedge tell the truth, you are trying to melt all our snow! Well the cat's out of the bag, that's how we survive up here! When mother nature won't comply, we need to take action!

Well, we made those "stilts" very heavy duty including tabs for tie-downs for trailering. We used a big-ass floor jack to get the front up, put those 10 ton jack stands under, did the same at the rear. We went back and forth 3 times to do it "little by little" at a time so the angle of the car was never at a scary rake.

It was never anything but solid because we did it a small amount at a time. Those stilts are stronger than the car. OK - you got me - look closely - there are clear cables holding up the car   :icon_smile_big:

In the spring I am going to install a 2 post hoist outdoor on a concrete pad so I can do this kind of stuff easier. The steam cleaner I have does a beautiful job of cleaning off grease, oil, crud, spray bomb rubberized undercoating, Hemigeno drool without wrecking paint, dip paint, original markings and factory undercoat.

The stilts look okay, it is just, well, what would happen if the wind started blowing? :o

If the wind started blowing the wing would stabilize the car.  Duh, its an aero car!   :slap:    :rofl:
