WHAt is the proper way to put trans am stands

I need to lift my car on to jack stands. What is the proper way to do it. Do you put the front then the rear or do you do it side to side?

Re: WHAt is the proper way to put trans am stands

It probably really depends on what it is your trying to accomplish. This is probably an obvious answer. So I would only assume that you needed the whole car in the air. I dont know that I would have a set procedure for doing so. Just make sure that when you lift the front or the back, keep the opposite end tires chocked. I usually lift the front then to the back. If I lift from one side then do the other, I find it difficult to get my jack under the vehicle (i have a TA with stock side ground effects) and I would worry about it sliding a bit toward me (it would only be a slight amount but to each their own). Only my thoughts on the matter.
