Blocks of of old school wood. I've got old railway sleepers cut up, which
get the heaps up quite high to get gearboxes out.
Be careful and think it through carefully, cars tend to come down quicker
than what they went up.

Subject: [MBZ] Jacks and jackstands
It would be nice to get the MBs higher than the Walmart jackstands and
high
lift jacks will go, but the prices for commercial jackstands and jacks
that
will go higher are prohibitive. The old repair shops would use half of
rear
axles for stands, but I don't remember what they used for jacks.
Anyone have a cheaper solution for getting the MBs up higher?
