It's really a pretty simple and easy task, but as always, pics and directions are much appreciated for those digging in for the first time.

There were no censors where I first posted this thread! Good call, I changed them all.

Let the Wesley Snipes jokes roll!
You're right. However, I've done it so many times that I know to pay attention to the front stands while raising the rear. Plus my board are indented with slots for the stands so that I don't have to worry about that. I also never raise the car at extreme angles for your exact reason.
Sounds like you speak from experience?
