highly recomended you use axel stands as said trolley jack is used just to raise it up, back when i was a teen i put an exaust system on with a side jack yes very stupid indeed i know things you do as a teen and have no fear for anything, well car fell sideways with me underneath and was trying to hold it but couldnt it started to go and shouted to my parents who came running out and held car by wheel arch untill i managed to crawl out, i would have been crushed if thay hadnt came out, 2 good things happened that day i wasnt killed and my mum and dad bought me a trolley jack, a set of car ramps, and axel stands i have a 2 ton jack i got from wilkinsons was on 75% think i paid a fiver for it and ive had it 5 years it lifts my ford galaxy ok but as said it lifts once in the air i use axel stands and also put wheels under car for good measure well on the galaxy i do wont put my lm reps under the car.
