Lifting the Supra

- You will need to raise the car about 2 feet in the air to give yourself room to work comfortably.

- Best to use (x4) 6 Ton jacks, they can support the car weight easily, and support it to the desired height. About $30 for two.

- You will need some sort of wooden Blocks to help the hydraulic jack to raise your supra to the desired height.

 

- I decided to put the front jacks under the engine support, instead of the side frame, that gave me more flexibility to work around the transmission area.

 

- I used smaller jacks in the back (I didn't have another set of the 6ton jack), they worked, but the transmission did not exactly clear the body of the car, with some effort I was able to clear it. I still recommend the (x4) 6ton jacks instead.

 

- it will get messy, so make sure to get enough room around your car, I used a two car garage.

 

- You will need all the basic and non basic tools, look through my install page & your Toyota repair manual and notice what tools you need to complete this project.

- I recommend a transmission jack if available, Comes handy.
