Be sure to always do it on a flat surface, pull your e-brake up and I always put the car in first gear.
I have jack stands that I put the car up on and keep tension with a jack for a failsafe setup. I feel much safer - if one gives, the other is there to keep the car from coming down upon me.

I have seen that set up only on race cars. But I sure wish my Evo had that. Of course that is only high enough to change a tire. I am not sure I would trust that being under the car.
I wouldn’t mind having the cash to dig a pit in my garage floor though either that or a lift.

The Eastwood adapter looks nice. I have a Craftsman jack and it's rusty and leaking oil. Sinks slowly under load so I throw the jackstand underneath as it's coming down.
I thought jacsktands were pretty reliable. Is that incorrect?
