QUOTE So you loosen the nut on the long rod a little bit on each side until it's on the dolly Yes. It actually goes pretty fast once you get the hang of it. I prefer and recommend it because it is safe and a one-person job. I think its nuts to balance a 500 lb drive train on a single point jack, while steadying it with the other hand, then lower it down about 18 inches, then pull it frm under thew car at least a few feet. There was a special adapter plate that the dealers/factory used to keep their assemblies stable, not just a jack centered under that mass. |
