Question for the guys with a Mustang II front end

Just wondering how you folks raise (jack) up the front of your trucks to get under for service. Do you use the MII cross member to raise it or frame one side at a time?
Thanks ...Brian

Re: Question for the guys with a Mustang II front end

On my 1948 Chevy 5 window, I have a TCI set up. My tire size if 215-60X15. My floor jack is 4 inches high and just will roll under the TCI cross member. This is where I lift the front end

I use the center of the crossmember to jack up the truck, but I have to drive up on a couple of 2X6 to raise the center up high enough to roll the jack under the crossmember!!
