You'll need to remove the rear wheel so a jack and jackstand is needed but honestly you're not even under the car. If it wasn't for needing to drill that one hole (which is why you have to remove the wheel) you could almost do it with it on the ground.

the prototypes didn't have the hole drilled, I was considering not doing it. I've had these things sitting in my garage for a year tomorrow. Bought them at carlise last year. Wife's banned me from buying more stuff till I install these...I need to get on it

I have one in the garage, just need a lift to instal it

That's a nice kit Kevin. Looks well made. A bit pricey though.
Description says "does not require any body modifications to install. The system bolts to existing mounting holes with the supplied hardware"

You're right. My bad. I thought I remembered having to drill a hole. Actually it's a bracket you have to replace with the supplied bracket. Again, the only reason for having to take off the wheel is to gain access to that bracket. Still, it's a piece of cake mod.

I've heard of something similar, from Miata racers. They buy hockey pucks on ebay and bolt them to the frame welds for jacking points.

Simple project is complete. Easy target for jack and large surface for jack stands. Avoids contact with fuel lines.
