I'm about to change front brake pads. This time in my wee garage, not my mates massive place with lift. And I'm wondering best way to lift one front side at a time. As I have been in about and know that the car is solid as regards the jacking tubes, my thought is to put a bit of wood under the sill under the front jack tube, and lift with a trolley jack from there, then pop an axle stand there also and lower until the stand takes the load (then 'nip' the jack up so that its there as backup). Sound okay? I'm wary as have owned an MGB in the past ............ but P6 sills and jack points appear a lot better built. I hadn't really considered this until I looked at it just now!
