Nice easy way to do it - but you might want to consider getting yourself a bigger/taller jack?? I bought a 3 ton garage jack about 4yrs ago and can't live without it now....the perfect thing for jacking up a Delica...along with some tall axle stands etc...money well spent.
Ramps are just the shizzle when it come to working underneath (as long as you don't need to take the wheels off?)

What were you doing that you're hoisting on the differential like that? Just trying to figure it out from this end...

Optical illusion...

Konadog got it right, optical illusion!
The jack is holding my 2nd veggie tank in place while I drill the mounting holes/brackets. Did an oil change today using the same method, so nice to have all the room to move under!

Great idea David; some of us would love to see pics of the second WVO tank. Or do we have to wait to the install is completed?
Cheers,
Kev

Let's wait a little... it's getting there though!
