All this talk about jack stands..., what's the best way to keep it up? Options

I like JPs boxes but I don't have enough room nor is my floor overly level. I want to get the car up as high as possible and be able to work on various areas.

Ideas?

JP I like that, where did you get the castor wheels?, Does the car roll around easy that way? I assume the wheels are strong enough.

Harbor Freight (where else do CSOBs shop?) for the swivel casters. I can push it around by myself but 2 guys are better for control.....control is gud (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

I have an 18" lift floor jack. I jack up one end bout 12 " & block it....then move to the other end & do the same.
I then lower the jack & put blocks on the jack cup. ....up another 8-12 inches ...bout that time the boxes go in sideways. More blocks on the jack & up to the full height & the boxes go in upright. By myself, it takes 30-40 minutes....ahlf the time with help....a lift would be gud.

I get 34 inches under the rear trunk bulkhead to pull the motor.....which is the only time I take it that high.
Last winter it went up "only" this far.
